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.

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.

Neat idea! How long ago did you do yours?

About a month ago. They have no dulling, still look great.
