Reupholstering my seats...., What im thinking bout going with... Options

[Arniel]

So i'm getting a quote today for the reupholstering of the seats and the cloth trim on the doors. What im thinking about going with is on the seats, having the centre strip done in red perforated leather, and the rest done in a dark near black leather. i know leather is pricey but i have contacts MOOOOO.... lol jk. i do though....

what does everyone think of this? i kinda got some spare money as i sold my 300zx the other day.

i was going to get a qoute for my interior too today but i got lazy lol , well my plan was silver in the middle ( if possible) and the edges are near black , to match the rest of my interior ! , when you get the quite tell me how much it will cots you , and ya that should look great , specially if you do you interior dash trims red and your interior lights red as well

i went today to an upholstering store and asked for an estimate and they want 1300 to fully change my old leather with new two-tone leather , front and back seats , whata bout you ?

Still waiting to hear back, im in australia but u will be surprised how cheap its gunna be. haha, the secret is that my dad has a business that gets things made through a prison here. Which has an upholstery section im lookin at cost of material plus very minimal labour costs and around a 3 day turn around. im thinking of going for vinyl over leather. mostly cause of price difference. just gunna get a good quality Vinyl. Should get some new wheels today or tomorrow too.

[Arniel]

YAY!!! I got my quote today! Its gunna be roughly $130(aus) for the vinyls and $360(aus) for the labour!!! wont be too long then! haha thats freaking awesome. They do a really good job too from the stuff ive seen. Time to save!

I will see what kind of work they do on mine first, then ill ask whether they will be interested in doing more.

[NaderG]

well , i just researched and the stock leather seats are a bit different than the cloth ones so leather peices of your seat's measurements will not fit mine.. thas a great price though

[yozef]

Please let us know how it goes. YOu could make a fortune if you could have sets made and shipped over to us. I think most of us would be interested if the price is right. I'm in!

Sorry if this is an irrellevent question but i was wondering if there is vinyl or leather out there that is in silver colour ... i am planing on making my interior into silver/black theme and i was just wondering if there is any silver material !

[Arniel]

I do believe I've seen a silver material around. Dunno whether it was an actual vinyl as such. I should be lookin at materials sometime soon. So ill keep an eye out so u got an idea.

[NaderG]
