Upholstery shop recommendation?
« on: July 26, 2010, 01:38:29 pm »
I am going to re-cover my seats in leather instead of the existing vinyl. Anyone have a shop they can recommend? I would drop the seats off with the hides to go on them.

Stephen Becker actually built a Cobra with vinyl seats?

I had the option of upgrading to leather and was trying to keep my overall cost reasonable. Seems sort of silly now given all the other tweaks I've made.  :idiot2: The vinyl actually looks nice, but the leather will wear a lot better over time and get that nice patina look. To Stephen's credit he got me the leather at cost.
