the material is 3m so its legit, its not the fabric its the textured vinyl so it actually holds up unlike the fabric because the fabric when stretched will always return back to original state which will cause lifts. and im just posting up my friends info just for a reference of another vender because some people are asking where to get it and thats where i got mine and im satisfied.

ill do that as soon as i can !

Also, how do the fibers hold up to scratches? Does it get any loose threads, like on an old knit sweater after a cat scratches it?
it looks just like it did the first day. no loose threads ! haven't really done much else besides wipe off the dust with a cloth if it even gets to that point. as far as how it would hold up to scratches , i dont know.. nothing really scratches it haha so its fine.

take the two/three screws out holding the piece below the stearing wheel (huge black piece). this allows access to the screw for that piece
