Retrim (Essex)

Postby baldyash » Wed 15.07.2009, 10:06

Getting my seats & door inserts retrimed in leather In August @Neils Auto Interiors in Hockley (Essex). If the custom cars he trims are anything to go by they should turn out well. Nothing flasy just Magnolia--like an S2 :banana: When its done I'll post some pics.

Well finally done & worth waiting for .When I can work out how to post an image I'll show. Magnolia leather with perforations/plain leather. Door cards as well. These guys are good. They are currently trimming a De Le Haye D/head from scratch incuding a new s/top!

That looks good.
The car itself is an unusual colour too. What is it?

8) Very nice, 2 questions (everyone will be thinking), how long did it take them, and how much? :poke:

Once they got the leather it took about 4/5days.£750. They do alot of Hot Rod show cars, trimming from scratch & seem very well know in that area. They seem very busy!
