Default Re-upholstery

Hi. Do you guys have any experience with reupholstering the seats?
Per my other post a few threads down, I picked up my 2nd S2000 today.
The passenger seat looks brand new but there is wear on the driver seat. I think the best way to rectify this would be to reupholster the seat..

Is that a wise decision, cost/benefit wise?
Any recommendations with shops??

how much would something like this cost?

I do all maintenance myself and even installed NOS on my daily driver, but I'm a TOTAL SEAT NOOB.

thanks!

To upholster leather seats in real leather, it's pretty expensive if you're going to a skilled shop. Milla Upholstery did some work for me in the past as well as did Nguyen's Nopi Nationals winning car back in the day. Not to mention he did a lot of Absolute Cars also. He's located out in Kensington MD. Be forewarned though, he's pricey but he's been doing it for over 50 years. You'll be paying for experience and skill.
