Default Refurbed interior

I had my worn leather on the driver's seat and the carpet refurbed this week. The carpet were worn in the usual place on the S where the cross member is. Here are the results. I think they look pretty good.




The seat was re-conditioned at the same time for firmer support.



Passenger side got the same treatment.

Good job, did you do it yourself?

What did you use to fill in the bolsters?

Cheers

Not got the skill, so took it to a local auto upholsterer. They used a high density foam to firm the seat up. Very comfortable ride now.

Is that leather on the floor? I think some nice S2k tuning mats would have looked better. Can you post a better pic if the drivers seat bolster? Looks like a good job there. How much and who did the work?

Yes it's leather. The carpet was worn through, I quite like the leather. K Baggs of Bournemouth did the work. The cost was £500 which included refurb and fitting of mohair roof. 3 days work. Nothing much to see of the seat bolster, but I'll do pic for you.

Good job with the seat. Leather on the carpet? Might get torn all too easily. I hope it lasts.

May do, we'll see. Its a heel pad apparently so I guess it has some padding in it.

Here are the two bolsters that were firmed up and the repairs to the worn leather.
