Re-connolising

Can anywhere recommend a place who can Re-connolise a leather interior for me? I'd rather pay someone to do a proper job than to try myself and potentially cock it up.

A mate of mine had his Golf done by these guys. Results were very good and not to expensive.

Cheers Boris, they look promising as they are in the South East as well, which is a criteria I forgot to add to the original post.

Hi Theo, there are 2 places I know of, one in Medway called "the trim shop" and another on Blue Bell Hill, Maidstone called "Maidstone Trimming".

Thanks for that, have you used either of these companies? I did speak to a guy on bluebell hill about some leather repairs, 'Stitched Up' was the name IIRC. He quoted me on leather repairs but I'm not sure if he can reconnalise.

The trim shop is re-doing the bolsters on my drivers side sports seat and using leather piping instead of the usual plastic, he isnt charging alot. I asked about re-colouring and he said anything between £75-150 for both front seats. Give them a call on 01634 715055, ask for Trevor.

Ahh ok, cheers for that. Can you post some pics up when you've had your seat done please? I'd be interested to see the end result.

Im re-colouring mine myself using a liquid leather kit, but I'll put pics up of before, after the bolster repair and once Ive re-coloured them (providing I dont bodge it) lol
