JTucker91 Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 You could always try doing it your self, i'm doing a parcel shelf at the moment, i'm using felt for it, cost me £2.31, the cards you could stretch some material around but the seats would be harder obviously.

Little Green Giant Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 the seats are hard to do! hence the cost of getting it done! haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomStevo Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 Ye that's about what your looking at, leather comes in hides, and costs usually between £100-£130 per hide, baring in mind my interior has 5 hides so far you don't actually pay that much for the labour, your looking at about £600 for labour ad say, so if u go for vinyl, which is longer lasting, harder wearing and easier to clean u cud do it under £1000 I recon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomStevo Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 That is way over priced if you ask me, I had front seats, rear seats, roof, pillars, boot build, all upper cards, lower cards, gear gaitiorseats and cards quilted, recaro stitched in front and rears with the rear bench foam raised to match recaro front around headrests And all for alot less than that, in all leather no ancantara so that works out evan mote expensiveOh and sunvisors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99hjhm Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 £600 for front seats in leather£400 for rear bench in leather£150 for top of parcel shelf£150 for bottom of parcel shelf£300 for door panels£150 for lower door panels£500 for roof an pillars in AlacPrice from premier car trim That is way over priced if you ask meProbably is overpriced, but looking at 12yans car, who had his seats done there. they do good a very nice job.Can't personally understand the idea of having leather door cards or parcel shelves, even maybe seat backs, most leathers come with a matching vinyl, very few car manafacturers use full leather seats, just leather faces, like the OEM Lupo door cards, (and seat backs at a guess), they are only vinyl... Remember there are many grades of leather too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomStevo Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Aye, most trimmers will use vinyl on the backs and sides, if they can get a matching leather, for my leather he had to use leather every were, that's why when it's finished mine will have around 7 hides in, I would advise to search around, get prices, look at samples of work etc, and don't be specific in what you want, that could bump the price up alot, with mine I gave the trimmer a rough idea and then let him get on with it, basically because they know what's best, what will look/work best, and u will end up with alot nicer finish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine booked in with them in the summer and Ryan's is Awesome tbfCan find places that will do it cheaper, but your find the quality of their work is horrid.

TomStevo Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 well that price is wrong then, the trimmer i use used genuine alcantara, with it stamped in the back and my headliner work out £40 dearer in leather so no i am not wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaileyVW Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 i dont think that £600 for front seats in leather£400 for rear bench in leather is all that bad... but id personally give the headlining a go myself, take ur time and you could do a right decent job £500 seems a tad expensive imo, same goes with the upper door cards, if i had a sewing machine i rekon id be to do a mint job of these lol...

marcusgrant Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Although them prices seem expensive, pesonally i'd rather pay that and be sure i was going to get a good job.No offence tomstevo, but your front seats dont seem like the best job as they are a bit loose round the sides.
