Help please- Roof Stitching, Replacement Back Window and....

[newchimboy]

Winter is coming and over the few months i'm planning on doing a bit to the Chimp to make her look a bit more presentable for next summer.

I wonder if anyone could help me with contacts or indeed help with the following (inc. prices)....?

1) Having the Hood re-stitched all round
2) Having a new plastic window stitched into the hood
3) Refurbishing the original wheels including some kerb/buckle damage

Any help would be great so i can enjoy the beast once summer drops!

Thanks

These people have a good reputation for trimming and hood work

Not used them myself though.

I got the hood rear section re-stitched/repaired by Tower View. Their trimmer did a great job and I have since given it a few coats of Fabsil and it is good as new! No need to replace it for a while yet, so can use the money I would have spent on other jobs! WQould recommend giving them a try, I am in Edgware if you want to have a look at their work!

Thanks chaps i'll look into both of these. Any idea on price? Cerby your car is immaculate looks the daddy!

My window was replaced and stitched for just less than £200.

Hiya, thanks for the compliments! I am a great believer in elbow grease!!
I gave up washing and waxing it Today as some bugger was out with his angle grinder three doors down sending dust clouds in our direction!! It does not look so immmaculate now I can assure you!
I think the cost was around £100-150 for the hood to be done? I am not certain as a few other bits were done at the same time!
They did a good job though, as before they repaired it all the stitching was rotten and some was missing. This casued it to leak on both sides behind the doors!
