Default Seat cowl/second look cover

So I Found a Maier seat cowl cover online. Picked it up, painted it, and installed it, but the fit isn't nearly what I had hoped for. i still have some fiddling to do with the rear fairing to line it up better, but I'm not liking it. I am in search for a second look seat cover in red/white/blue. Looks like the company went out of business. There is a person on ebay selling some stock, but they don't have what I need. Any suggestions on where to pick one up?

Research, call, research, call, search constantly online!!

It sucks, because those covers are great, and you are correct, they've been out of business for some time now.
A while back, some research I did even led to the name of the main gal that used to produce the covers for the seller, but I was never able to get in contact with her, to see if there were any avenues I could try to find any remaining products.

What you're doing is the best you can do - just keep searching online, until someone ends up selling a seat covered in the design you're looking for, or maybe has one on hand, that's not yet been installed... there's got to be some out there somewhere!!

Sweet A** Seats in Texas custom covered my seat. They did a great job. Black front seat with white carbon fiber back seat and blue stitching.
