Vinyl update complete, 2008 XLV

[trayson]

That's the drawback off not having the boat at the shop for the install, when you install the pieces stuff may not line up or wrinkles in the corners or when seats are squished together. Still looks great, the only reason you notice it cuz you paid for it. Everyone will be in awe.

Yeah, like I've owned the boat for years and I never realized the fact that the original vinyl didn't really flow right either! I question if he had the boat if it'd have been too much different given the OEM vinyl being "off" too.


If it's only a hundred or so I might have him re-do the engine cover and I'd get a lot better pattern flow after that. But I am having him re-do the seatbase of the rear bench. that's one I can make him do over. LOL.

Hit up David Langston for recommendedation in Houston.

Mine was gonna be $4k I'd I dropped off there boat I think. With me doing the removal and reassemble of the pieces in the boat, it was $3300. But then I asked the shop to install the front seatbacks in and that bumped it up $150.



Hence the fact that in hindsight I should have given him the boat. Without the boat he wouldn't have been able to really know that the oem patterns didn't line up like you and I would have envisioned. In fact, I didn't even realize the lack of continuity between the rear seatback she the sundeck until I got it all reinstalled...

So I did not have a custom shop do my boat, I ordered the skins from the dealer through Rinkers and had a friends put them on for a small fee. I did just meet someone at work who had his older Malibu 247 redone by a guy in Conroe and he was raving out the quality of work. I will get his contact info tonight. I think he said he spent 3-4k and that included new foam I think and a 247 is ALOT more vinyl than a 21V.

Try sending a pm to RdLangston. Oh well he beat me to it.

AGREE . When doing mine , i took the pieces out and test fit them to see if the curved pieces wrinkled to much to my liking etc . Of course they did ....so back in side more heat and stretching , massaging etc .

Im sure if you took the boat back they could do some quick stretching and heat to get them tighter and smooth out the wrinkles

Overall it came out great. Yeah, I had to give him the boat for a week after the pieces were made and he got them stretched out better. It makes a world of difference to have the new interior.
