Did you reupholster the seats yourself? Or did you take them to a shop?

If money is not tight, I would take them to a good shop. However, if you have the time and patience and feel you can do a good job and of course money is tight, try doing it yourself.

It's easy, the trick to make the job look good is to make sure the seat bases and form are in good shape.you just cut the hog rings remove the old upholstery and it's best to take pictures so when it's time to reassemble you get it correct. Take the time to clean up and paint the frames so they won't rust, the factory usually didn't, bother. You need to get the foam tucked in rite so you have no wrinkles. Buy good hog ring pliers not cheer ones. If it doesn't, turn out ( has wrinkles) take it back apart and fix it, it won,t. Iron it self out later.
