I was ringing around today asking about full interior retrims(seats, doors, carpet, dash...... everything) and I got basically told around 4000 with leather seats and stuff or about 3000 with velour
What else can i get them done in, what about pleather, would that be cheaper?.. or vinyl(i cant even think what vinyl is like).. or what other materials are there
does 4000 with leather and everything done seem about right?

what it cost to retrim in leather??? well that would also depending larger on the grade of leather you purchase. there cheap leather and prober car leather whcih is suited for high temps that could set you back over $1000 a hide.
what ever material you use you could mix it up with vinyl to lower your costs. you would be superised the amount of different colours and variants of vinyl around. theres hundreds.

I just did all the door trims myself, sewed 'em up and put them in. YOu probably wont wanna do that, but it looks really good (very custom coz i got some embroydery on them) and it ojly ended up costing me about 50-60 bucks, plus i can say i did it myself. It isnt as hard as it sounds, depending on what you want...i will get some photos up soon...

thanks for the reply's everyone. I want just everything re-done with fresh materials.. so all the same designs just new and completely different colour.
About the leather, I wouldnt go TOP of the range but i would also like something decent that will last.
Scrote: would he do EVERYTHING?
things i want done(colour scheme: (grey interior or soarer tan, im not sure which yet)
-New carpet different colour
-Seats completely retrimmed in decent leather and all the plastic trimming remade aswell(as mines cracked) to suit colour
- Door trims completely refreshed with new everything.
-dash and center console resprayed(so it wont flake off) in a 2 tone colour scheme to match
-all A pillar trim to be sprayed...
-Roof material to be coloured to match.
and basically anything and everything else aswell.
Miss22: id love to take a look
Draven: where did u get the carpets?

I just booked my car in for a roof-lining, was quoted:
-Around $300 for roof-lining including front, side and rear pillars. Material is vinyl and color is whitish.
-plus an additional $25 for each sun visor.
-plus anything from $100-150 to get a guy in to re-seal front and rear windscreens.
It's damn expensive!  ...but they're local, not too busy, and most all convenient!
