Hampton Vinyl seat fabric?
Hampton Vinyl seat fabric?
I'm ready to pull the trigger and order a set of "Hampton Vinyl" seat covers from Hawks in Opal (Med. Dark Gray) along with all new carpet and headliner/t-top shades/sail panel/sun visor.
Before I order, the only thing I'm worried about is the look and feel of the Hampton Vinyl. Does it really look and feel the same as leather? I presume it will last much longer without cracking or wear, correct? What about fading? I'm having my windows fully tinted but I'm just curious.
Also, to have the seat covers installed, what am I looking at cost wise from a local shop and maybe have some touch up done on my seat foam?
Thanks!

Re: Hampton Vinyl seat fabric?
it shouldnt be to expensive, cause they are premade covers id figure around 100-200 but its also a good learning experience to do it yourself but i would buy better hog ring pliers than the ones supplied
