That was the first thing I did with my 80i, but with some leftover vinyl I had from some auto upholstering I was doing. Need to get some real leather though. I look forward to seeing how it turns out.

All Im Using are the HD414 Pads......I don't think I want to change anything else on my MS-pros, the sound and comfort with these are perfect.

Make your own, today I turned a piece of wood someone gave me into these cups.

Try it!

Maybe this is old but has anyone used leather instead of tape on their bowl pads?

Went to a shoe repair shop and requested thin strips of leather to cover them.  Looks so much nicer.

If you don't have the DIY skills (I know I don't, but hope to soon rectify that :)), you could also check out this thread:

I have a pair of the Vintage Vibro Cups from Headphone Lounge, and can attest to their quality.

Hey guys, would you like me to post a review on a new Headphonelounge product thats coming out? Its leather covers for L-Cush pads to increase comfort. They will retail for $40. I will be getting it early on the 2nd of January(sometime around there).

That's the best idea for a DIY project I've heard in a while... I'll definitely try that out.

$40 seems a bit overcharged to me.
