DILLIGAF?: Project Ratty
-
Another disappointing weekend. Weather has rained off doing the springs and also the well needed inside and out clean of the car :(
On a positive note, my leather armrest came yesterday morning and after a little bit fabric adhesive it was fitted and it looks good, so much so that I have made an enquiry to a local re trimmers about getting my seats trimmed in leather to go for the full VIP interior look (I've heard good things about this company from Famine so I'll just see what they say).
-
so whats the VIP thing all about then? :D
be interested in the price you get for leather retrim :)

And then there's going mental with it

Actually, I was down there last week - they repaired a leather seat (one of Marvin's suede/leather jobs) for me :lol:

The repair was £48 - basically the cost of a single panel.

Cheers, just needs a little more stretching and a little better fitting and it will look better.
Now my quest goes on to find more leatherness goodies and to see how much a re trim would be or possibly if I could fit some MX5 leather seats in :D

Mmm hmm and I know what Famine said about the significance of the flame badge but I was getting sick of people thinking it was a Hyundai :roll: (plus I think the flame badge looks cheap).
-
Also might be a bit pointless seeing as I'm thinking of selling up, but I'm getting these seats off my friend in a couple of months

very nice seat would look very good in your mx
