Have one on my D8 and love it! It's great for carving hard to the side and helping not slip off the side. No problems with durability yet though. I would call Skinz and I'm sure they will take care of you. The gal I talked to was great! Highly recommend one! Oh yeah, I have the bars and bumper too!!

I just ordered one last Friday from Sled Solutions - black gripper for my '09 RMK. I should have it in a few weeks.

Sled Solutions, do you happen to know if they there is enough extra material on the sides to raise the seat about an inch or two and still be able to staple it underneath?

I just put one on. Seems like your rear end/knees/legs will be planted in cold icy or powder conditions much better than the oem seat cover. I had my skinz cover fitted on by an uphoulstry guy for ~$60. Fits perfectly snug. Much better than if I tried to staple it on myself.

I bought it from you Paul ;) The stitching is falling apart right by the fuel tank. It's on a 2008 Polaris Dragon RMK

(I was the guy who you sent me two covers that were the wrong ones)

You did treat me right though :)

There is extra material but you'll have to see when you do yours. I can't remember how much extra I had last year when I covered my 09.

Sounds good, I will see when it comes. Worst case scenario, I will bring it to an upholstery shop and have them add material on the bottom. I figured now is the time to raise the seat to more of a high rise (easier on my knees).

I've had very good luck with my 2 SPG seat covers.

I'm installing another one this year.

I know that Sawyer had some issues with his and was unhappy, but for the 1000's of covers they have sold, a very small amount of problems.

Top, I'm sure Paul will take care of you if he was your selling vendor and get you taken care of. Do it now before the in-season rush slows things down.

I hated the slippery seat cover on my 08 D8, the Skinz cover is way better. I have the seat cover, front bumper and shock covers, all top notch stuff as far as I'm concerned, and Sled Solutions was easy to do business with. I ordered my seat cover with black printing, I think it looks much better than the white.
