Default Cheap/Easy Options

Hey all

Fitted seat covers to the back of my car, Front ones on their way, but I hate the fabric insert into the doors. Is there a cheap or easy way of replacing it ? Was initially thinking a plain grey or black...not sure on the cost or options though.

I want to replace both the front ones and rear ones. Any ideas would be great !

Cheers
Jeff

same grey as your seat covers would be good or black.what color is the outside of your car maybe go with a similar color to your paint?
it would be worthwhile to open the phone book
and give a few places a ring as to cost.

Spotlight is the way to go I got some fake black leather and glued it on , Add some chrome handles and it doesn't look to bad. Worst part is your car stinks like glue for ages
