Official seat cover group buy thread

[pjmac5]

Front and back are done. Back was a total B!tch. Although I have a staple gun, it just could not drive the 1/4 inch staples into the plastic all the way. I decided to use a #7 3/8 inch screw with a finishing washer.

Working on posting more pics.

It looks good guys!

Don't get frustrated over the wrinkle, the rear seat is wierd.I had a friend help me dryfit earlier and ended up with the same wrinkle repeatedly.Out of curiosity I folded up a rag and laid it behind the mound to level out the rear seat temporarily.It seemed like the wrinkles lay down easier with it level.It might be worth a trip to Hobby Lobby to get a little foam material to add on.

I installed a 5/8 inch gel insert and then wrapped the seat with 1/4 inch neoprene. then wrapped that with finishing foam. The front seat cover was extremely tight as a result of the neoprene, but I got it on.

Seats are coming out really nice. Me like it.

I'll wind up being the last of this group to do mine, so Im enjoying seeing the feedback. Definetly going to use a blow dryer to make the material more stretchy and easier to pull tight.

Really like how the white turned out! Great pics everyone keep em coming! I'm gonna try to work on mine Sunday. I think I'll add just a litle bit of foam to the rear to hopefully fix the wrinkle everyone else is getting.

Ok so here is my attempt at the front seat... I think it's alright for my first time ever.

Sorry on bike pics prolly be junky (didn't edit) and it's dark out..

Is that the gold gel from luimoto or a different gel insert?

I got the gold gel. I can take a pic of my covers and gel tonight. I might not even get to mine until after the 4th. Looks like some had better luck than others on the rear seat. Im 100% doing the front first haha...gotta get the gel in first though

Lookin good, I think I might do this, hopefully the gb price will be honored! We shall see. Either way, it looks good!

 

[EsrTek]

GB price only saved us shipping really...

 

[nismos14]

Yea on second thought, probably not get one of these, but they are looking pretty sweet. That white and black one is sick.

I got the gold gel too I was just wondering if that's what was in the pics installed.

I just got mine today, but i can't install the covers until this weekend:shakehead: here is a picture of mine. By the way thanks:canada:

What color's did you use? I have the copper 6R and want to go a little more red than what bleedinblue used. Curious how that color would look next to the copper bike.

If everyone could post what color choices they used in their pictures it would be great for future orders and color matching. Thanks!

It is a different insert. I wanted something a little thicker.

I went with the dark orange because I plan to add more orange in the future.I already have a few orange details, but I plan on orange graphics and levers to.

They send free samples, I recommend the burgandy type colors if you want to match the paint.I wanted to match my wheel strictpes and fuel controller instead.Just pick 5-10 of your favorite colors and request samples.
