repainting sport seats

[epapp]

I'm curious if anyone here has taken their plastic-back seats apart to refinish/repaint them.

I've seen a few repainted backs of seats and it looks nice but it seems like I will need to totally unwrap the backrest leather to remove the plastic for painting.

How do you take these seats apart?

Thanks

had the seat out last week for other things and was looking at how it went together. I do plan on repainting the seatbacks and other "granite" finish parts in the interior in the next few months so I will look forward to you paving the way with your progress and being the guinea pig if you want to

I've had mine out a few times as well and still cant figure out how to get the back off without pulling the leather edges out of the plastic lip. Grr

I had the seat backs painted on my 993 turbo. The disassemble was over my head so I had an upholstery shop do it for me. IMHO, it is a worthwhile mod.
