I tried to cover my seat with an old leather jacket, looked good for a few months then it started to fade and now looks crap

What can i use to recover my seat and where can i get it?

Get yourself off to a local furniture re upholsterers mate. They will have plenty of off cuts that they could do that job for you in 5 minutes. Unless off course once again you want to do it yourself.

I would suggest not using off cuts froma Laura Ashley style Chesterfield. :P

Nova Chav: 'Ere, nice seat cover, mate.

svrash: Yeah, some dumb chav cut me up, so I ripped his head off and took his daft hat.
