I need to get one Modena vadar re-upholstered. Any suggestions on good places to go and how much it will cost. Thanks

I might be able to help you out but not sure if I can get the modena colored leather.
I will check.
Kevin

Would you be able to do E34 seats? I'd like to make them softer and more firm at the same time. Replacing them with used seats defeats the purpose because they may still be hard.

How about a soft touch vinyl DIY kit like this for $600 front and rear. I can do cloth as well, like the ones bellow.

Wow that looks good. :)

I'm going to have to go that route :)

The Mad Stitchers in Chamblee. John Dutton (owner) has been reupholstering (sp?) for 35 years.

Sweet, I know where that is.

I bought a machine 3 years ago and started sewing (self tought) 70 + bimmers, other various car, boats and planes later I have done pretty well at making patterns and stitching. e34 could have been tighter but it was my first as well and my 5th interior I did. I do enjoy it though......................

:)
Here is my first e36. I made the patterns from covers and the customer installed it.

I need an arm rest done, how much?

I asume E36? Leather, vinyl, microsuede, alcantra?
Kevin

How much to redo my front and back seats in cloth.

I hate leather vaders!!! Maybe for the front and rear the bolsters are Alcantera or suede and the middles are cloth? Maybe get some ///M stripe in there. Do you have AOL or email?

PM me your answer...

can they get Modena?

Wow that MTech in the middle and alcantera on the bolsters front and rear would be SICK!

Will email you this weekend, rough estimate?

I would have to say as far as price and quality Kevin's kits are by far the best way to go. I have seen his work, and have had several of my customers cars recovered by Creative Options. All of my customers loved the work Kevin did for them, and have recommended him to other people.

can they get Modena?If it's getable they can get it. Sounds and looks like the local board member does very nice work also.

Do you have this type of mesh available by any chance? (The center part)

This is considered the new interior on the Scion tC. It has great life (not a sign of wear in my brothers Focus ZTS Mach Edition) and seems to grip pretty well. If you need any more pictures, I can probably get some decent close ups on my brothers car. It's just a simple mesh fabric, but it looks very durable and can probably look really nice in our cars.

any places that can do BMW leather and match it to Modena??? prices??

I am sure I can get that material as I can get all the new seating material that is out.

Thanks Chuck, Ely and thank ATL. I had to actually weld metal plate tabs to the sliders, so they would bolt right in. I decided on this design as opposed to my old style

How hard would it be to make seats like what are in the BMW CSL?

http://www.tyresmoke.net/albums/albun91/csl_interior.sized.jpg

upholstery part is not hard you would need to find a similar seat. For everyday driving those would suck, if you like that style check out Momo GT like I have. Tim Ng has a set in his E36 m3.

Not to Miami or further. When I recover them I am going to put more padding in the fronts.

Talked to my distributor and did not find Modena OEM leather. Do you have a pic of your seats or since you are local we could try to match it to other European leathers.
Kevin

GO WITH KEVIN, he is doing my 325ic M-Technic seats. This is Tim Ng and I endorse this message

I am glad my work is so well liked thanks for the endorsement guys. Tim did you mail out the armrest yet. After looking at I think we are going to go with the OEM lotus white.

I don't want any mis-matching or colors that are slightly off if you can't get the leather but here are some pics. http://www.speedforsale.com/viewcar.php?vid=411

No I agree the problem would be finding leather that smooth. Did you try the dealer?

havn't tried the dealer..kinda trying to avoid that haha. I'll give them a call and see what they say, but most likely their prices wont be worth it. I just need a referal to a good shop around town. I know they can get the leather I just forgot the names of the good shops that can do it.

Might have to go that route. I am guessing if they have the covers you are looking in the 1,200.00- 1,400.00 range for one seat. I can do your fronts and rears in a close color for $1,800.00

All I need is the driver seat re-done. The passenger/rears are in great condition.

OT I know, but anywhere in town to get some decent racing seats for cheap?
