Default Got my headrests back from Grant
Sent out my headrest to Grant(blackhawk131) last week and got them back yesterday. I think they turned out awesome, he does incredible work. Here's a couple quick pics of them, the bird and Trans am lettering are silver, the last row of feathers are black with silver around them......

1. $85 bux total
2. you can pm him, blackhawk131, and he will take care you
3. I took 1 week, sent them out Monday, got them Saturday.
4. Getting them off is a little tough, need some muscle and patience, have heard you can heat them up with a hair dryer and they will come off a little easier, just take your time getting them off, they will.

He did mine, it costed me around 65 bucks. He does excellent work. As for puttin it on the seat, it was a little tricky. Just make sure the leather is pretty warm to stretch it out and be patient!!!!!
