I woulden tcall "fixing a rip" a mod my self, SO i dont think it really should be posted in here, any i recon take it to a trimers, or if u wan tto be cheap, i had a mate who got his entire trim for his car re-done at a tafe. It cost him $40 or somthing to do the whole lot. so,e kid did it for his assesment. He did a great job to.

rips in vinyl no doubt...... vinyl can be "welded", the pro's can fix it - in exchange for one of your arms or legs. It all depends where the rips are, as to whether you can fix it effectively yourself... if you're coming out cruising on saturday night i could give you some pointers, or business cards.....

i would just get the pannel (s) replaced, beareful cos at sum trimmers there is a minimum repair fee , eg $60 even if its a 5 minute job

69all orig matic, i was told i could get my cracks glued up together, like what "supercharged850" said

if ya got vinyl seats they fill up the crack with a colour matching adhesive and buff it up after. it sounds like an easy cheap job, inquire about it, i dont think it would be exxy.

my cracks are like spiderwebs, when you prod, it opens up at the centre etc, cant see it most of the time
