Im gonna ruin the moment, what the hell is that stitching....? Bro, you gotta learn to work a heat gun and shockrag. Im not sure the length, but its very possible one piece of vinyl couldve contoured and saved the stitches. Otherwise, not bad.

lol it was my first time to do any stitching. i dont think the vynyl would have stretched over the front right there but i know now to use cord in the stitching like they do in the seats to make it look right and hide the threads. but hey i didnt think it looked to bad for a first time besides im not a proffesional here but i know now for next time. next will probally to put something in the bed

Sewing machine is the way to go... I had my brother-in-law help me (who used to do upholstery work back in Mexico.. yes, he's Mexican)... and we cut the pieces with 1/2" overlap.. took them to a sewing machine, sewed them from the backside so when you flip the piece rightside out, you only see a seem and no stitching.
