Not that bad of a drive, 30 minutes
My wife grow up in your area so I used to drive down there all the time.

I don't want to be a dick but doesn't the leather look better than those giant fuzzy seat covers?

Thanks buddy.
I just did the wheel wells yesterday, and polished them up to a super shine also. I am on a mission to polish every part on this car!!!

Yes they do, but to minimize wear and tear on the original seats and preserve them, I keep the covers on. And sheepskin is actually comfortable, lol. So win-win situation lol.
