I sold my nos kashi 5gold suede seat, coz i wanted a crack at making my own.
So with the 5gold money banked i bought a rough Kashi MX seat for £2.
Bought a suede handbag off ecrotch for £2, carpet fitters glue £2.70 and £3 for the decals.


Stick a seatpost on and clamp in a vice.

Take your packaging foam, spray with glue..spray top of seat and press together.

Stretch over...

and trim

Same process with the suede..

looks like a northern boy with small hands made that lol
looks ok but i have just drunk a lot os stella's  :daumenhoch:

scary_leary:
You know what they say chubs.. small hands smallll, err

anyway i'd give it a 7/10, it needs tweaking a little bit..
but the good thing with the glue is you can pull it back and then re-do it.

should be a solid 8/10 before it goes on  :daumenhoch:

lazychubs:
