Default Legendary Front Seat Upholstery Coming Apart at the Seams: New Install

I am close to completing the upholstery on one front bucket seat bottom. I noticed a split in the seams in two areas as I was rolling the upholstery over the two front corners of the seats. In my opinion, this is the most difficult part of this project. I used the Legendary web site as a guide for this upholstery installation (https://www.legendaryautointeriors.c...lation-videos/). I replaced the broken springs with new ones, placed burlap over the springs, then a layer of cotton, then the ACI seat padding. I don’t think it is too thick. I’ll contact Legendary this Monday and hopefully they will give me a replacement. These splits can only get worse. If these splits are caused by my novice installation, then I will accept my losses and move on. I bought the Legendary upholstery and ACI foam for their known quality.
