There is a small one man band setup on Dobbs lane in Kesgrave

Never used them but they have been long established and are known to many traders locally, they came recommended to me.

All I can do is show you some pics of my door cards for my
R5GTT...

Remember this..?



...and this..?


...and my plans for using this?



Well, a trip to Aylsham today and I brought back these...







With a small mod made...



One of the rear door cards...





...with a close-up of the rather smart stitching thumbup



The driver's side door card...





...with more exquisite stitching





Two views with the top panel attached but the passenger side door pocket
laid on to give an idea of the finished article.





The trimming was done by Paul Moore in Aylsham and he's done me proud! As
you can expect, it wasn't cheap, but it was money in fair words. Needless to
say, I'm totally thrilled and my thanks go to him for completing the job on time
and on budget thumbup

Regards,
Steve

How about Newton Commercial, Leiston IP16 4LL. They did a really fab job many years ago on my Swiftune Mini.

If it's vintage, it needs to be this man.

Keeping the original character/patina is his speciality. He's just repaired some pre war Riley seats for a mate, and the match he got was amazing. Stamped the grain in and got the colour match spot on.
