Full leather interiors custom or standard re trim your views?

Having had the benefit of a Z with a full custom cream leather interior I can say that I really appreciate the luxury and as a lot of other Z's are getting old and tired interiors I am sure a lot of other people would do too.

 

This post is a bit of market research. I will explain.

I work in Walsall which is world famous for its saddlery trade and manufacture of leather goods, with suppliers of the finest quality leather products in the world based here supplying royal family, various car manufacturers and designers we have the skills and talents to do anything in leather, I kid you not.

Therefore I pose the question how many of you guys would be interested in full leather re-trims for your Z and at what price do you think is competative?

 

I am asking you guys as the market often dictates so think on, we are talking about top quality jobs here too in leather not some stick on plastic.

If it seems like a goer I could assemble some willing folk in the trade who could servcie your needs and register as a trader, obviously this would be an addition to our main busioness but there is some interest at our end for doing this kind of work for connoesurs who appreciate fine workmanship plus we like Z's.

This is a serious offer. If its never going to get off the ground then so be it, I asked.

Let me know what you think, this post is not an offer of a servcie yet, if it looks like it may be viable we will register as a trader if we can and take it from there.

Would you only be doing standard seats, or would you cater for non standard setups, and are you only offering leather or would you consider alcantara too?

I'd be interested (not in the short term) but definitely longer term - and as above to re-trim non-standard seats.

Would you only be doing standard seats, or would you cater for non standard setups, and are you only offering leather or would you consider alcantara too?

As quote?

As above + are you talking top quality leather seat covers or a drop off and collection type service.

 

You have to bear in mind that I have been speaking to a really good Trimmer who has Quoted me £1700 for a full custom retrim. Including replacing all seat bolsters and resculpturing them to create seat shapes I want. Thats with Alcantara seat facings, leather backs and sides, leather arm fests, leather cubby box lid and covering my dash in Alcantars. Thats for a SWB. He said roughly the same for my 2+2 without the dash and top half of door cars being covered.

 

Thats leaving the car with him and it all fitted.

Hi we can do standard or custom seat re-trims etc as markzx is asking for.

Stock replacement or a custom job. Folks would have to drop off their rides and the guys and girls can work their magic on them, we have a few facilities with secure lock ups. If people come to us with a car a pad,a pen and an idea or even photos of what they want we can advise on the options available and possibly give you some ideas that you had never considered. Tell us what you want and we can most likely do it.

At this stage I can tell that there may be some interest and I will talk to my folks more about offering a servcie out to indivifual customers.

Im currently conisdering getting my car done basically want all the tweed replaced with good quality leather with a logo on the front of the seats and piping

 

A rough price would be great

Would be great to a have a Retrimmer as a Club trader. Retrimming is popular and its not always easy finding a retrimmer you can rely on for quality workmanship.

 

Interested to see some portfolio pics for examples of your companies work.

Give me a good price on a quality full leather re-trim a la steve300zx and i'm in... what's the best you can do it for? including fitting?
