The seat came from a friend that bought it after market for his sporty years ago. Theres no name on it so i dont know who made it. All i had was the pan i added 2" foam and gel to it. before i covered it.

Cool thanks. There are so many types of seats that look like that, but just won't work."It is better to die on your feet, than live on your knees."Comment

Modern paint, modern look, modern wheels.

Polishing Aluminum, the EASY way
sand to get rid of those blemishes....
I start with green...use a scotch brite pad as your on rag
then white.....with a towel
use clean 'off' rags, but white flour, YES, from the cupboard. put a little in the off rag, then watch what happens
here's the secretwork the black, work the black, work the black, if you don't see black after a few seconds of rubbing your trying to polish 'clear coat'
You'll need to strip the clear off.... this stuff is great
