No, the factory cover was all vinyl with a pleated gold vinyl insert. Actually had to go and verify that for you, must be slipping I guess.

Well, someday when I have $2500 burning a hole in my jeans I just might have to make a set........

Re: 50th buddy buckets with cloth inserts?
They will cost a whole lot less to make with a vinyl insert as opposed to the cloth insert.

Just dreaming........ I have a small tear in my current bench and I am looking at the cost to replace the cover and I am just looking into the cost of upgrading to buckets.

Re: 50th buddy buckets with cloth inserts?
I had a set of buddy covers made with b/w houndstooth inserts, installed, with new foam for $500. Local Upholstery shops are the way to go on this...not online orders.

Re: 50th buddy buckets with cloth inserts?
My local guy quoted me $2000 to recover my bench!
Now that is monopoly coloured money, so $1500 US. I do not own buddy buckets. My estimate Maybe $1000 to buy a starter set of buckets. $1000 in foam and covers $500 in labour to put it together.
