I decided to treat my 1a to a retrim, as it was showing its 27 year old age in there.

.

.

ground in dirt, worn out foam, missing stitching, burns, tears etc, you cant really tell on this

"before" photo, but it was all there:



I went for the same 1a pattern, but had it contrast french stitched instead of piped and went for suede

& leatherette to compliment the metallic beige

& black bumper look.

Here are the

"after" photos:





The steering wheel was looking a little tired through wear

& sundamage, so it has been redone in leather with contrasting stitch

the doorcard cloth

& dashboard insert has been redone in suede, as I couldnt abide the idea of mismatching materials in there

& the 1a armrest was redone in leather

& suede with the contrasting stitch aswell.

Here is is a pic of the inspriration behind the colour scheme

- Lambo Reventon:



All this for less than some people have paid just for a pair of seats.

Cant go wrong

& best of all I've got that new car smell!

The trimmer's name is Ant Ward, his company is called Dubholstery

& is based in Warrington.
