You can buy new headrests from fountain directly with logos and pay 1 million dollars..LOL...My solution was to do it in vinal and so far has lasted... I will attach a pic ..the logo you see I made in a art program and had it printed on vinal and stuck it on.if it peels they cost 20.00 a sheet after initial setup. hope this helps

Bad Habit,
The seat back embriodery tends to take a beating. We have had it on both our Fountains but we had to get religious about putting towels over the seats to prevent fade and snagging the thread. When I had my 35 in for some gel coat work recently, they were surprised at how good the embroidery still looked. They said most of the boats that come in for any work have some serious damage to that embriodery.
Beakboater, who also runs the Potomac, had some damage to one of his head rests. Apparently the work necessary to get the seat apart to fix it was cost prohibitive (at a local upholstery shop).
It may be better to leave well enough alone...or try the decals mentioned by Blowincome.
Good luck

If you check out my AVITAR that is a picture of the back of the bolster logo on my 04 Fever. The new logos are now adhered to the vinyl with a special glueing process. This is supposed to last forever...yeah right. It probably will stand up better than the embroidered stuff but only time will tell. If you can reach anyone in customer service, they may be able to tell you if the logo can be affixed to your current upholstery thru some process. Might be worth a call. Good luck.

Gferdon,
I wondered where your avatar came from. It looks great and I agree that it should last longer than the embroidered stuff. The rear seat back faded after 1 year but the bolsters are still in good shape. It's always covered when not in use.
What does your rear seat logo look like?

Well the embossed vinyl logo is standard I guess if you don't order the numbers package on the sunpad, seats, & pillows.
I have an 04 29 built in September & I got the embriodery.
There are 2004 Fountains in my dealer showroom w/ the numbers package & they are all embriodery.
