Sydney Trimmer

[Wacky Dee]

Just got my creme leatherette covers for my R34 .. looked at the instruction 'manual' (just a bunch of r33 photos) and it looks very complicated if you want a tight finish.

I remember reading here somewhere before that someone had their leatherette cover fitted by a trimmer around sydney somewhere and they came up perfect,

Does anyone know any trimmers who've done these covers and can do a 100% job (no loose fittings etc) .. I want to replace the factory covers, not just slip these on over them. I also need my carpets (or atleast the thin top layer) replaced with pure black ones so might do all this in one go

Can anyone recommend a motor trimmer in Sydney that does a good job but isn't too expensive ? Some of the places I spoke to wanted $400 just to change the carpets which I find ridiculous considering carpet itself wouldn't cost more than $50 in materials.

You'll probably get someone closer, but here's a start...

Kevin Morris

Ph = 47511001

Mob= 0414511001

He did a great job on my previous R33 GT-R

He also did a remarkable job on John Edward's Lamborghini

Great Value for Money

Thanks Terry I'll give him a ring. I just dropped by another trimmer with a pretty good rep and was quoted $660 for installation of covers (front, back and door inserts front and back also) + $350 to glue a black carpet on top of the factory moulded carpet.

Pretty expensive .. but there IS a lot of work to be done if it's to be done properly. Not sure I can justify 1 grand though so I might just have to sell the covers if other trimmers quote similar prices. Of course another option is to do it myself, but I think if it's gonna take professional trimmers 2 full days to do it it might take me a month and still not look as good..

hey Scott, this may sound stupid but .. have you been doing car interiors before? For how long? It's just that I am a bit of a stickler when it comes to the car and eveything needs to be perfect so if I were to pay a trimmer I expect a perfect finish which is why I don't wanna do a DIY as I know there's no way I'm gonna make it look like a factory trim
