Soo I have a little rippage on the interior of my s12 and wondering the age I could fix it. People just tell me to.zip tie it but was wondering if there are others ways.

If you are referring to the leather on the top edge of the door panel, it really cannot be fixed, you can wrap it with new leather/pleather though.

If you are talking of the seats, grab a needle and thread and have fun.

wrap it in some sexy pleathery snake skin

kaleco auto sells purcupine skin seat covers! LMFAO!

Id just pull the pannel and take it to an upholster. maybe they can match it up and repair it good. Otherwise, may have to get the hole interior redone.. runs in my mind somewhere we found a place for new carpet.. but maybe that was for the AMC im thinkin of...

some things I just dont tamper with!

Perhaps some weather paste repair thing

duct tape if youre on a budget, as it comes in more then one color these days. but, if you wanna do it right, hit up the local fabric store, such as Joann Fabric, and buy a few yards of vinyl. then go here:
