Buddy Buckets done!!
I finally got my buddy buckets recovered, so I feel like showing them off, lol.
New foams(driver and passenger) and covers. Got some before and after pics. What ya think? I know the frame is blue, and I gotta do something about the console yet.

Re: Buddy Buckets done!!
Good job! A little shot of black paint on the frame and paint/dye on the console and it will be ready to go. Did you upholster them yourself?
PS you are in school now? how is that going?

Looks they'll work just fine for your project.
Good to see the comparison from 'project to near complete'. Good pics. ![]()

Re: Buddy Buckets done!!
What was the final cost to redo them? I'm debating on whether or not to cover mine or get rid of them.

$350(CDN) for frame and what was left of the seats $400(US) for the foams $150(US) for the covers. Got a good deal on them here. $100(CDN) to get them recovered. And then there was shipping on the foams and covers.
