Best Trimmers I know are Wessex Trimmers in Southampton. I am sure this is something they can handle!

They have done some exellent work for me in the past!

Cheers

Have you considered flocking rather than a material wrap ?

Apologies for my ignorance, but what's flocking?

(NB. I don't want it to look like Indian Restaurant wallpaper from the 80's..........hehe)

The process starts with a coat of glue then short fibres are electrostatically blown onto the glue. The fibres are attracted and land on their ends in the glue.
The finished surface is like velvet.

I have some parts flocked and tested the durability by flocking the wheels on my daily: several thousand miles later they still look good (if a bit bizzare...)

Still i went for a leather trim on the dash, but have other parts such as air vents flocked. However a flocked dash does look good and will be way way cheaper
