There you go Jonny, I was going to take my own pics and upload after they were fitted to my car but it just seems to have happened this way.
I wanted the quilted look ( diamonds ) to the central sections of the sport seats, the central sections of the door cards, U shape cowel around the handbrake and the two kidney shaped panels either side of the central tunnel in quality Nappa leather.
Locally I was quoted £2,500 by a bespoke vehicle upgrading service and the rest were over £1300. I also sent an enquiry to Paul in Colchester and he quoted me £1000. I spoke to him on the phone and said I would have to travel from the North and that I wanted to haggle. Agreed on £800 and that I was dropping the seats etc off to him that night which I did and 4 working days later the seats etc. were ready to collect.
I had the quilted look and that involves a lot more work and needs padding out with quality foam so maybe if you go for plain look in standard leather it will be cheaper.
Obviously I have had the work done to my taste in regard to specification-sizing of the diamonds, thickness of padding, single stitching as opposed to double etc.
Paul can do whatever you like within reason. Take a look and let me know what you think and you can ring him and work a deal out with him he's young and dynamic .
Let me know what you think, the seats have now been cleaned up and have settled so the leather looks a lot tauter now.
