I got a quote from my local re-trimming place, and he said £500 all in, for the whole interior including roof and new black carpet.

But the reason its cheap is because he recommended using Vynil ( spelling probably wrong ) Its just like leather, same sorta smell, easier to clean, and lasts longer - All for the same effect.

I have some cream leather, not enough for a full interior, wondering wether to do half leather half alcantara

white was my first choice, but i think it would go cream anyway with the dirt
