Hi everyone - hope you are all well

I have my Door Cards out of the car to change the window rubber, and it seems like a good excuse to get them re-trimmed at the same time.

Has anyone got any recommendations of who/where to get this done?

There's a couple of earlier posts talking about doing them in Alcantara and as part of a retrim overhall so it looks like a fairly easy job spin

Very easy job to do. I paid 300 quid to have my Chimaera's done years ago and when it came to the Cerb i decided to do it myself in total it cost me £16 this time and i have enough material left to trim a good bit more if need be.

I think my finish was better than the company who did mine (Don't worrie no one in the TVR circles )

D&C did my steering wheel and did a great job i would be happy to let them do any work on my car.

Looks great! smile

Right - sounds like that's the way to go then - guessing it's undo all the hex bolts on the back, prize-off the black bit with the buttons in etc. and then glue on new interior material (and reverse)...

I got my whole interior done at AJ trimming in Bourne End Bucks. They are the place that advertises in Sprint magazine.

Very good job with top quality leather used.
