Default Recaro retrim, Can anyone recommend anywhere?

Im looking for somewhere that can retrim a standard RS Turbo interior.

Not looking for leather, maybe just a black or grey material.

Preferably need to be in the south east but any recomendations would be appreciated

JP.

There is a well regarded company in Portsmouth, I will try and find their email address. They were mentioned on here and the chaps name is unusual.

I would recommend the bloke who did my seats but he has disappeared, he was excellent.

There is a trimmer near my mum and dads in Iver and he is awesome - he was contracted by Audi to do the development work in the now current R8!

Very nice chap too - will have to see if i can get his number. He did some bits on my saph and his work is top notch.

Here are mine. Leather and heated. Cost me about £900 shipped but he did the door trims to match in a 205 pug style (in my Cossied pug)




The seat looks worn at the front in this pic but it is just sunlight on the leather. I feed them with leather treatment all the time
