Thanks! Yeah I know, I had to make more then a few seams to get it to go down right.

I didn't want to go nuts gluing it down, in case I ever had to take it back out. It's solid up where my feet are, which was my largest concern.

exactly what I didn't want to deal with later.

Either way, it's down good where it need to be around my feet, passenger's part is down pretty good too, I think it will be fine.

does this stuff stretch really easily or do you have to pull the hell out of it, i never did something like this before and i dont want to struggle and get pissed off and have it come out like ****, lol. just trying to learn as much as i can.

It will come out well. The jobs you see look like crap is because people rushed it and got fed up with the ammount of work it takes to make it look nice.

thats what i was thinking, but i figured its only 2 bucks,plus i have a friend that wants to do the same thing so i can let him choose his color too.

thanks a lot for the help guys, and the influence to eventaully tackle this.

when the roll bar goes in the back seat coming out, and it looks so gorgeous when its nice and clean looking without the holes and **** back there.
