Custom Headrests

I got my custom embroidered headrests back today. I think they look so much better than stock headrests.

Headrests were $40 each (no core charge) and included all of the hardware. It was just $10 each to get them custom embroidered. This is a cheap upgrade, but they look amazing and well worth the $100.

Wow...nice. Do they use factory headrests and re-embroider them?

I used a FabricMate pen. Took about 2 hours and I used 2 pens.



Be sure to wipe every 3-4 inches...don't do a long section and then try to wipe the excess away as it will be harder get it off. The color dries in 24 hours and looks great.

Re: Custom Headrests

It's held up very well so far. If it did fade a little, you could just go back over the section with the fabric pen again.
