i did not super glue the edges which i think i should have, but it looks good for now, im happy with it i if it peels off or anything like that in a year or two maybe i'll redo them and super glue the edges, but for now it looks fine to me so it ok

I told you to use super glue!!! haha trust me, when your car sits in the sun for awhile that fabric is going to want to peel. The 3M super 77 adhesive is good for holding the fabric in place but not ideal for keeping it mounted/sealed.

Looks good though, makes me regret not getting the titanium color
