Guest Lee81 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Depend on how bad yours are. I had a sagging drivers side years ago. The vinyl had come away and bubbled round the armrest. I carfully drilled through the backing board and then injected Evostick through the holes. Over 10 or 15 mins i pressed the vinyl back into position until it held. Once that was done i then used fibreglass sheet and resin on the rear. I then layed a few layers of clinge film over the resin. Using some off cuts of wood cut to a rough shape and a few weights i was able to get the shape of the armrest area back to how it should be. Then just left it for a few days and It came out really well. would be hard pushed to know if it had ever had a sagging armrest. Took some time to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
