Yeah, we have been using it more and more but the wetsanding and buffing is a PITA. We are working on getting the stuff premixed by the gallon for use in a spray gun. It is supposedly waterborne and lays really nice with some practice.

Still use the film allot but some lights like your's just cannot be wrapped due to the harsh curves. Still perfecting our processes but nice work on yours.

Haven't had an update in a while, money is a horrible constraint lol. Picked these up at a hell of a price so this is my next update. Not really audio, but part of the car =). BTW this is my first time ever doing upholstery work, I am pretty damn proud of my self how they came out. A few loose spots/wrinkles but they will come out quick in the Florida heat.

Damn, where'd all this motivation suddenly come from? Seats look pretty good. Some of the bagginess on initial install looks like signature Roadwire kit. Is it a Roadwire? Good thing is, as you said, when you cannot use a steamer, the Florida heat will eventually have the same effect. I hope you did get a really good deal or you know we would have hooked a brotha up! We do 5-10 kits a week here so we get them pretty cheap...

$250 to my door =). Do you have any tips to help relieve some of it? I have noticed some has come out already though.

You got a really good deal then! Much lower than cost! Anyway, if you have a steamer, you can hit all the seats and problem areas with it. But that is most helpful as you are installing it.My guy steams all the backs of everything he installing before he actually puts it on to stretch it/make it more pliable.

However, good old time will relieve most of it. Just go out of your way to let the car bake in the sun as much as possible. I have also heard that you can lightly mist all the seats with water (keep a sprayer in the car), just before you leave it sit in the sun everytime. Kinda like a "backyard" steamer.
