Thought others might be able to use this info.For the last couple of months I've been trying to find some rear seats that are in excellent shape ,but have not prevailed.The seats in my car are in excellent shape but the piping on the top of the rears are sun faded,along with a set I bought on ebay.Keep in mind I'm panicing now cause the cars due to be out of the paint shop this week or beg. of nxt week.Anyway got bored and creative last night and grabbed a RED sharpie marker, a paper cd holder ,so no red got on the grey,and went to town.Damn if those things don't look great,can't even tell they were "sharpied" match perfect!!will take a pic tonight and post.

1st pic marked a small spot to check it out
2nd pic rear seat completed.with rear bottom and front *note* rear top seat piping was the only piping sharpied

They do look nice.

Are you sure it won't come off?

I rubbed like hell and got no red on my hands.either way if they do start to come off i'll sharpie them again then continue the quest for seats with non faded piping.

Thats really neat! It might work for me but mine is worn through in one place.
