Tell me this doesn't suck...

See if you can guess where this is going...

I was in the house the other day writing something down. I got sidetracked by something. Went back to write and couldn't find the pen. I opened the drawer and found another one and continued writing whatever it was.

A few hours later, I need to go to the store. I open the driver's side door of my 2002 Pearl White TL Type-S with Black Leather interior. I jumped in and POP...oh...sh!t.

I immediately knew where I left that pen...in my back pocket. Dohhhh! My perforated leather seats now have one "extra" hole.

Any ideas how much this is going to cost me?

I remember seeing those infomercials when I was a kid on leather repair kits. I don't remember seeing them fixing any perforated leather.

Any ideas?

thx.

Any idea on the bottom section? It's a pretty big hole...the entire tip of the pen went in.

hey man, just dont think about what you did, as long as you sit on it you wont see it, let it run untill its unbearable and then repair it.

it would have "sucked" more if the PEN went in thru your ass instead! Seriously...

depending on the location of the hole in the seat, I will either not worry about it, and just sit over it and cover up. Or if the amount of money can be justified, I'd replace it.

Sorry it happened...

Heres a link to Acura Automotive Parts. The picture shown is a TL-P but give them a call before you place the order over the internet

http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org/...prddisplay.jsp

Its around $300 for the lower portion of the seat(cover)
