Not any more. The seat left two big dents in the bib. I've had it off for a month now and the dents are still there.

I've had that happen before where someone would create a shipping label and send me a tracking number, but then not drop the package off at the post office for a week. I hate that ****.

Yeah, I was about to order a leatherworks but decided to search on ebay before I did and that garage leathers one popped up. Everything I've read says they are the sniznitter, but I wasn't planning on spending as much as a new one goes for so I was happy to find it.

after 15 days and numerous emails and lies from him and complaints to ebay i finally got the shift linkage in the mail. something didn't look right when i took it out of the box, it's the wrong freakin size. He assured me it would fit, what an idiot! Wanted a refund anyway after dealing with him. thinking of spelling out D*uchebag in mores code in the feed back.
