Default Any recommended upholstry shops?

Hey all,

Figured I'd post up here to see if any of you have experience with local auto upholstry shops. Basically, what I'd like to do is have a rubber-ish (or something durable) sewn into the driver's floor mat of my Integra. For the S2000, I have some Rick's floormats that have the rubber heel pad, and it really is great at keeping the floor mats looking new (no carpet under your heals to wear) and it makes cleaning the mat easier.

In any case, thoughts / suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Thomas

Yeah, they carry alcantara and can order pretty much anything you need.
For the curious, I was quoted $1100 installed for my 2 seats in leather/alcantara using the kit from www.roadwire.com.

We could do it easily. For reference, we did s4play's interior in his most recent GPW that he has up for sale.

Just to circle back for others that might be interested:

The heel pad install turned out great. Really happy on how it looks, and also knowing that it'll hold up better in the long term.

Would definitely recommend Auto Interiors and Tops to anyone needing custom interior work!

Thanks,
Thomas
