Default Repaired my center console lid and seat (sort of)

The console lid turned out perfect, I can't complain about it at all. went from this:





To this:






On the seat I didn't get that good a repair, but it's a thousand times better. I just glued in some matching vynil under the torn parts. I still need to have the seats redone, but this takes it off of the early priorities list.

From this:



to this:

Looks wayyy better.

What in the world are you setting on the lid? Looks like a 500lb man has been resting on it.

I'm 500 lbs and just leaned on it too hard.






Not really. It was like that when I bought it, just got it back from paint a couple of weeks ago and have had a little time to do some repairs. I never saw the lady that drove it before I bought it but she did drive it drunk a lot and didn't take care of the car at all on the inside or outside, no telling how it got broke like that. Car's coming along though!

I'll do a write up on the next one I do. If anybody wants to volunteer their lid I'll do it if they pay for the glue. First one only, don't want a flood of console lids!
