New armrest install results
So i purchased a new armrest cover from redlinegoods.com and i am very pleased with the results. My old cover was literally rotting off my armrest so it was urgent that this got fixed. I followed this very good DIY that SRT-11 posted HERE
Heres what my old cover looked like:

This is the lid of the arm rest once i scraped the melted foam and glue off. I used Goo Gone and soap and water to get like this:

7 years of elbow grease and too many blunts rolled on it. plus multiple attempts to rub off the grime resulting in the paint coming off The thing was NASTY.

Ohhhhh. I didn't know it cane off like that! Yes! I was thinking I had to get a new arm rest.....mine is still in good condition, but its justhard as rock. I could probably just add some fresh foam under there to soften it up...
Awesome. Great job bro

Yep!!! The foam makes all the difference! I got the 1/2" stuff from Jo-Anne Fabrics and it cost me 4 bucks. The 3M was 14 tho lol
and yea its a black arm rest. Matches the black inserts on all the seats. Ties the black and grey look together.
