Custom Seat Upholstery
In some way, the inside of our cars tells a story about who we are. A clean, good smelling, immaculately kept car tells the story of a successful businessman (or a hyper-compulsive janitor). A dirty, trashy car with stains on the seat tells us about somebody who spends most of their life rushing from place to place, or somebody with concerns to important to worry about something so trivial. Either way, just like our clothes, our cars send a message to people. And while we can't always afford to control outer design of our car, it is much easier and cheaper to control our cars' inside.
Just changing the seat covers of your car can have a huge effect on how the car is viewed by you and your friends. And custom seat upholstery can change the most generic car to a statement on who you are as a person. It's easy to just get a seat cover, but they don't look as good. Besides that, the constant readjusting they require is annoying. Completely replacing your seat upholstery is fairly easy to do, and permanently changes how your car will be viewed by everybody who looks at it.
And if you care enough about how you car looks to change its seat upholstery, then the best bet is to go with a custom design. Generic seat upholstery is adequate if your seat has tears or holes, and you're just trying to make your car presentable, but in most cases, it won't add anything to your car aesthetically. Custom seat upholstery, on the other hand, will look better and be more unique. It's a perfect way to express your own individuality, and won't break the bank, even if it's hand-made. Most cars will require a unique fit in any case, so it just makes sense to pursue something that is different than the mainstream.
There is no shortage of advantages to custom seat upholstery. As mentioned earlier, most car seats are designed uniquely, so unless you have a very popular car, it will be very hard to find a generic fit to replace your current seat upholstery. In that case, your new upholstery will have to be a custom fit, which can cost more. And since you will probably be investing in a custom cut at least, it just makes since to get your own unique design as well.
It doesn't have to be anything flashy. It can be something as simple as two solid colors sharply cut against each other. Or it can be as extravagant as having a landscape portrait on your seat. It all depends on what you feel will express yourself the best. As long as you have the internet, your options are only as limited as your imagination. And if you don't want to spend a great deal of money, there are relatively inexpensive options for custom seat upholstery. Even if you don't care about a design, but you need new upholstery to cover a damaged seat, getting custom cut upholstery can be the easiest, and even cheapest option.
Installing seat upholstery yourself can take a few hours, because it involves removing the seat itself and removing the current cover. This may take some basic tools and/or do it yourself skill, but is something any person can realistically do with some time and patience. Once you've removed everything, the actual installation will be the easiest part of the process. All in all, custom seat upholstery has so many benefits that it is hard not to justify the expense. Whether your aim is to replace a damaged seat, or to just add to the appearance of your car, custom seat upholstery is a perfect and easy solution.
