Haha just did this "mod". Took me roughly an hour to do it all, but I'm a noob when it comes to car mods.

i'd be willing to swap my stock (full black) boot with yours if you want. PM me if you're interested.

this mod is tricky! would definitely fool me.

I actually dig the look with the red stiches. I got the boot from this ebay seller for $20 lol. High quality.

You can choose the stitching colors btw i just forgot to.

I might post a DIY on how to do this for atx people.
