Thumbs up Recommended: EdGuardUSA LWBS Bolster Covers
Hello all -

I joined this forum specifically to let everyone know how pleased I am with the bolster covers I ordered from Ed at EdGuard. Here is why:

- He was very responsive
- He was able to complete my custom order and have it shipped to me in ahead of schedule
- The quality of the product is above what I expected (this truly looks and feels like the same OEM leather)
- Fit and finish is excellent - you can tell the product has been refined to a point where it is perfect every time

I attached some photos. I chose to go with a lizard green stitching to match my seatbelts:



Side of seat

Height adjustment buttons

Top of seat

Looks fantastic. So nice to have a true craftsman making stuff for our works of art. I'm going to have Ed do my sill trim in deviated stitching as soon as I feel like taking mine off and shipping them away for a few weeks.

Also recommend his head rest guard. The embroidery on mine was starting to fray due to helmet and HANS rubbing on it at the track. The headrest guard is almost as subtle and just as well made.

Orly?

Are you using seat angle brackets by chance? I guess I'll take some selfies and see if I'm rubbing my seat with the gear on.

They look great. Do you still need to do the Velcro and zip tie thing to install them?

I have them in mine. You can't really tell which is the point.

Yep I use angle brackets, HANS and helmet still rub the headrest when I am adjusting my harness etc.

Yes, and Ed includes those items in the kit! It is super easy.
