NOVA/DC/MD - Z's & Coffee Saturday's at 10AM in Fairfax, VA & Columbia, MD

Let me just say this, upholstery is a serious pain in the azz. I guess thats why shops charge you an arm and a leg to upgrade what you have.

dealer was quoting $500 for upgrading the bottoms of 2 seats in the new Rogue... not sure if that's worth it.. sounds like it's close.
