[evnmopwr]

If i need to do something, i rather get my own then i dont have to run around asking people to borrow their tools. lol

We all know Borrowed tools are sometimes borrowed indefinitely. :roflol:

But thats just me, I spend the money on stuff i need when i have the money. LOL

When i dont have the money, then i spend the wifes. HAHAHAHAHA

 

[evnmopwr]

Finally an update on my Msport front seats ...

... not sure how i feel about them yet... :fencelook:

Please Comment on them. Need to see what you guys think of them.
I for one am questioning certain things.. mgwaiting:
Like ," i waited a year for this?? "

 

[individj]

not for me bro...i would of then rather popped your other set in and fixed that

 

[Kyle]

This is what happens when you retrim old foam, will never be the same... Sorry bud... Maybe try sell them?

 

[evnmopwr]

I have to agree.

They look nothing like this..

Centres are nicely tucked... Mine looks swollen and puffy

sides on mine looks almost smaller
And
That front section on mine looks like a swollen tampon AND the stitching is skew

All i want to do is just fetch Monday then Im going to toss them :blueCry:

---

@Kyle , its apparently "NEW FOAM"

Cause the Old foam was hard already.

sell them?? :roflol:
no sane person will buy theres..

Will fetch it monday and see properly what im dealing with

 

[Dewald Basson]

If you want get rid of them, I would not mind using one for a gameling rig :fencelook:

Wasn't the E46 foam always *harder* ? I haven't been in a single E46 where it was soft. I know the seats' foam in most newer cars are much softer. Like getting into a Lexus the seats are super soft and comfy, but they are very different to what I am use to in the E46s.

 

[KPM3_30]

That looks like a lounge seat now.. :fencelook:

 

[evnmopwr]

Lmao @loungeseats.

Tinuva, they are generally hard but the foam was like brick. Lol. Compressed and out of shape

Anyway. Maybe i just have to make and do with it

Will post better pics of it when its in my lounge... I mean car. Lmao

 

[///Maniac]

What about buying new foam from BMW? Have you priced it? Sure you could salvage them. [/b]

 

[evnmopwr]

Went to collect my seats last night.

Will just install them since Sport seats are better than Standard seats.
Will need to hunt Better ones.

At least all the mechanisms still work 100% ok.
Other than that, on with the images .... of my new lounge Suit. lol

Will install them tonight and see how it looks in the car

:roflol: Funny guy man!

Honestly speaking, they don't look as bad as the first lot of pictures made them seem. I would also pop them in the car for now, until better ones can be sourced.. Hope you didn't pay full price for the re-upholstery :fencelook

 

[Kyle]

Agreed, not as bad as the pics... Would also just use them for now.

 

[evnmopwr]

@KPM_330 , Thats why i ddnt trow a fit about it. I only paid for the New sponge and Leather. Labor he did'nt charge me cause of the time it took.

I just loaded it up, told him i love them and left.

Trust me, im annoyed by just looking at them :fencelook:

From far, the seats look good. but close up, Not so good.

Passenger seat, see how big the gap is from the Front slide thing:

but worst of all, SEE HOW SKEW THE SEAT PADDING IS!!! :blueCry:
only the Passenger seat is bad skew.

Seems like 2 different people worked on the seats.
Passenger on is all Messed up with broken headrest clips and the front slider clip also broken
And the Driver seat is "Perfect" with no broken clips and the Padding is atleast straight
anyway, on with life. Lol
