Looking good! You're one of the few people I've seen who has recovered the factory seats.
Did you have the padding bolstered as well?

Yes Brayden the seat had to have all new foam, but that's what Courtney wanted. Courtney wanted a pink racing stripe down the middle, thus why the pipping on the seats is pink but we did not do it.

Car looks great man, thanks for the updates.

Hopefully Courtney is still able to appreciate the greatness of these cars.

Darryl, i am unsure what font was used, it was copied from the old ones that come out of the car.

I can probably shed some light on the embroidery process. The existing logo would have been scanned and digitised by the embroiderer (usually outsourced) to create an digital stitch data file. This is a specific file that tells the embroidery machine how and where to stitch. There is no 'font' for the MB logo.
