Nice retrim Nim!

U said u got yrs done for $1850 yeah, front and rear seats, plus door panels right? Wld u know roughly how much it would cost for just the front two seats?

Or would anyone else know? Just wanted a rough idea...

IND38T · Post by **IND38T** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 12:05 am

I believe the front two seats would be like 1300 dollars or something like that so not much difference, might as well do the whole thing instead of doing the front seats first and then the rear's later because batches of the same colour may not always be exactly the same if they use different rolls .... i hope that makes sense......

yeah i did it all for less than 2k ....

What's the name of place you got the retrim done at? Do you have a contact? Price doesn't sound too bad.
