frankie · 17th April 2007, 18:15

any one got ne ideas how much it would cost to retrim front door cards and rear bench in leather and ALCANTARA like the gti-106 seats.
i did try a quote request from summit leather but they never got back.

Hi mate,

I got a quote from www.schaffinoleather.co.uk for a leather retrim, they quoted:

£650 + 17.5% for front and rear seats to be retrimmed.

£50 + 17.5% for each door card to be retrimmed.

They sent some pics along with the quote and they do look pretty impressive.

Check out the site mate.

Hope it helped,

Tom

ur looking at about 350 for a decent job

Predator_R32^p · 17th April 2007, 21:01

350 were do you get yours done lol

i would say at least 500 but that all depends what material you get, leather and alcantara are expensive and will up the price a lot

I paid £550 for a full leather retrim, front seats, rear seats and door cards, custom retrims on ebay, made a fuckin brilliant job aswell.

eh?????????????

he just wants rear bench and doorcards, not front 2 seats

and andy got his whole interior inc front 2 seats done for 550.

thus id say 350 was a reasonable price for a rear bench and doorcards to be trimmed

Predator_R32^p · 18th April 2007, 16:03

ahhhhhh should really read things

whole interior from 550 yeah the rear bench and doorcards about what you said

alcantara costs 50 quid per metre its a joke

have some rep

the bloke who does it on e-bay is actually very professional too, he may be a route to getting your re-trim. my mate got his quicksilver done and its very good.

cheers pred, sent some back

Yea £500 is a fairly acurate figure...

Predator_R32^p · 18th April 2007, 17:00

Thats where i got mine from, mainly because he's only up the road, think he mentioned he's been retrimming seats/sofas etc for about 10-11 years now, so i think he's had plenty of practise.
