great guys, cheap and well known in the industry!

they qouted me Roughly $2500 to re-trim my interior (Seats in 2 colors, door trims gear boot and handbrake boot)

obviously cheaper for fake leather, suede and vinyl :mrgreen:

theres other trimmers around spend some time with the yellow pages man!

meh, kind of don't see the point in putting in leather on ur roof, and other parts that you don't sit on, LOL....

why not leather on everything except the seats.... half your cost, noone will tell the difference unless they know their nappa from thei nappi san :)

soz, meant, why not retrim everything in matching vinyl except the seats (which you retrim in leather).

In all honesty, the only thing wrong with vinyl is the fact that it doesn't breathe very well in the heat.

There are a few places around sydney that will do it but youll be looking at around the 2.5 k to 3.5 k to do so.

I'll send you some pics of my SRi corsa ... i was lucky and got mine from the factory when i got the car.

How did you get factory leather Anthony??

What's the go with dropping in some seats from the Turbo Astra? I find the drivers seat in my SRi to be pretty uncomfortable to be honest, woudln't mind leather, but definitely something more comfy.

Just wait for the next Motor Show and walk out with a pair like two guys in overalls did to a GTV one year!

would it be cheaper to just retrim your seat in one colour?
was thinking just normal black leather with white stiching
