It takes about 4 days a seat. Yes i cut all the old seat covers at the seams and cut the vinyle EXACTLY the way the old material was shaped. I also had to buy a hog ring tool and hog rings to reattach everything but thats only about 10 bucks. Total to do the front seats has been about 100 bucks because of the thread I used A LOT of expensive thread. The actual vinyl was only about 50 bucks and I have some left over.

Hey again guys I just wanted to give a warning to anyone who is attempting this. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE PIECES LAID OUT IN THE RIGHT PLACE BEFORE YOU START TO SEW!!!!!!! I accidently put a piece that was supposed to go on the front in the back and because of it I added another 3 hours of work and its a little lamer than it would have been if the project went smoothly, ill show pics of my mistake once I get the camera back! later fellas
