How much more expensive would it be just to buy a new OEM armrest?

You should!!

I did notice one staple that went in rather far and felt my elbow on it once. I just kinda pushed it down from the topside. No more issue.

Haha thanks. A neighbor gave it to me a couple years back.

I just looked on Hondapartscheap and the whole center console would come together as one piece, so $181 plus shipping.

JPM coachworks sells the cover by itself for $50. You can send them your pad and they will install it for $10.

I admire the amount of work that went in, but I still would prefer the leather armrest, unless you were to do more components in the cloth. Looks like a nice finished product though
