Just wondering how much the cost would be for a total retrim/colour change.

Reason, seen a decent priced car with a livable outside colour, but the interior just makes me want to puke.

Good question. Would be interested in the answer myself, as it's something I would like to do in the not too distant. What sort of colour would you be looking to go for, as we could swap if I'm going to redo mine anyway!

IS it the leather or carpets or both you dont like.

Also I think I have seen the carpets dyed talked about on one of the TVR forums somewhere. just food for though.... prehaps.

Not sure what colour I would want...

But seen two cars with a revolting green interior

Its a big job to retrim the interior completely.
Carpets will cost you about £300 if you fit them yourself. Seats anything upwards of £500 which are an easy swap but then you've got the dash, centre 'T' section, door trims and underside of the hood bar to consider.

I'd suggest waiting for the right car rather than trying to make it.

hmmmmmm.....£2k...... its a lot.

Ohhh well, I was just wondering. I reckon the money would be spent on the actual car purchase then.

Hi Steve,
As you know I had mine done at A&R pound and they did a good job on the whole! The cost of full leather retrim is about £800 and the carpets were about £250-£300, hope that helps make your decision...? If you want half leather its about £250 less.

So thinking of moving to the Griff eh......?

Later

Mike
