After a year of looking at other peoples bad re-trims and worrying about losing £500 plus.

Anyway the Jap websites recon Gibson Trimming is the Place to go to (Ring Vin on 07956 437185 )

So I took down the 2 front sports black leather seats and a wish list to match the leather type, grain and make them look like OEM new.

And that's exactly what I had back. this guy is the dogs bol**cks.

If you want a Re-trim, Do your self a favor. Sell one of the children, drive down to Southampton and give this craftsman your money.

I paid £600 for the 2 fronts and it was worth every penny.

Get some pics up mate... This is something I'm interested in as I worry about getting that OEM look from a retrim.

Will try to get pic up next week - Putting a 2.7 lump in this week.

Phatz. PM me and I will e-mail you some pics from my Son's phone in the next few days.

Even my wife who could not see what was wrong with the old covers admits these seats are amazing
