Hey guys, How much would a full re trim from a proper shop put me back?

only real problem in my whole interior is the door trims. just the usual crack near the speaker and the holes that attach it to the door aren't too crash hot.

The rest is clean and in good condition.

Was done a couple years ago. A lot of custom stuff with new fabrics and stuff. So yes it was $6000 and not a typo. You will see pics soon :-)

Thats because the recaros were sold and have spruce seats. Dye will be an experiment and if they turn out well enough ill keep them, if not then back i go to recaro or some bride seats. Not sure, all i know is i want to dye the seats first and ill go from there if they dont come out to my standards. Also $6k was for a lot of little pieces and everything was pretty much redone to brand new material and then the rest of the interior was retrimmed in recaro fabric.

Also another reasons for doing it myself is that will all the prep work and doing it properly it should come out good, just need to know what product to use. The main thing stopping me from just buying stock black seats is the ones ive seen all have faded areas so some of it looks grey black with patches of grey from wear and tear and UV damage. Im hopefully that dying it will make it a deeper black rather than a blue/dark grey like the stock seats and that they will stay like that for a few years before the sun and wear damages them.

Joshua, expect to pay in the area of $3000-$5000 for a complete retrim of your interior. Price varies depending on what material you use.

Daniel, David's interior only cost that much because he used Recaro material. It's Ollie's old car if you remember correctly...
