haha thanks Chris :p can't learn by watching!!!! (plus it was a pretty easy weld lol)

okay question,
I just got a pair of greeny/blacky dark colour from a 1200. They look good but slighty different shape and bit rougher than the ones it came with... the ones it came with a tan.. any idea if an auto holster can dye these? If so, how much are they roughly??
assuming your talking about the seats? there are some really good quality vinyl sprays out there, that will change the colour without wearing through.very durable and hard wearing, maybe a vht product?

Drive with no clothes on? That's the obvious answer I think

Vinyl is definitely the seat material of choice if you're driving with no clothes :D

Yeah sprays are all gravy. Trick is to clean the shit out of it all first. I would use sugar soap and then some prepsol (test that it dosent wreck the vinyl first,on the underside) Got lotsa sugar soap here if you want to borrow it but its about $5 to buy and its wicked shit. Also spraying it in the heat of the day or warmth of Aarons lounge will help it stick like the proverbial.
