Test Fitting - Fine tuning the covers for these sportsters - Needed to fix a few points on the bolsters and sort out the area around the Recaro. We actually ended up completely redoing this seat

This is how they turned out when all was said and done. We also did the door panel inserts (matching red with black stitch), arm rest cover, shift boot, suede headliner / pillars, 3 pc suede wrapped false floor with access panel for air tank..

Pole Positions
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Covered these in a teal all weather synthetic using an nice auto/marine material that is specially treated and carries a very high temp,rub and uv rating as well as mildew protection. The material can handle moisture, is easy to clean, great for track use, and still reasonably affordable to replace if ever damaged. Great
for motorsport while still remaining nice looking for street use.

(test fitting... an absolute nightmare, had to go back and do some adjustments to the original pattern, these not not fun to fit)

We are doing custom panels, console, mats, and headliner for it now and are hoping to have that all squared up soon.
