the covers have about a half an inch of padding underneath so it makes it look kinda puffy but comfortable

IMO- go have it re-done, It should be a lot tighter- a process that is tough without proper tools.

Sorry- but I had to be honest- the looseness makes that look very cheap and also just like pep-boys seat covers. You will be much happier if you have it done right.

well it was either doing it myself or paying a certified cst installer $400 bucks to do it, i chose to do it myself and the outcome isn't so bad, its actually pretty good for my first time ever doing this

maybe when i get some money in the future I'll have them redone

If you read one of his posts.. He said it would have been 400$ to get installed.

I think 400$ is a lot of money..
