not impossible but highly unlikely me thinks. For the cost you could be up for you could almost get a new set.

Megan does good work - she did my jacket for me but get a quote as it may just be cheaper for new leathers :)

You should've talked to him out at the BSFOS on the weekend Pinchy, he was out there.
