Re-trimming Seats Vantage

[AndyM95]

I've just purchased a pair of the updated >MY07 Vantage seats to replace my tired MY06 seats. The only problem is my interior is Truffle Cream and these seats I've bought are black.
They were a steal hence why I bought them, however now I obviously need to get them re-trimmed to match. Has anybody had their seats re-trimmed and can recommend any companies? I'm based in Berkshire but travel up to Cumbria regularly so anyone on that general route would be preferable.

Any rough idea on costs? I've tried to do some research to no avail.

Also are there any good matches to Truffle Cream without going to BoW?

Cheers,

Andy

I'm having my whole interior redone over the next 8 weeks or so. These are the companies I contacted for quotes. I can't comment on workmanship until I've had my interior back.

I don’t know where you’re based, but Bespoke Leathering do a lot of retrim work on higher end cars and are able to access OE colour dyes and hides (where possible) to do the job.

John is the owner and will happily talk your head off about what options there are. He’s done a number of jobs for me over the years on various cars.

I don’t know which part of Berkshire you’re in, but if you’re this end, d:class in Chobham are often recommended.

Anyone willing to discuss figures they’ve found for these sorts of jobs?

[dbs2000]

Very much depends on what you're having done. For a complete interior retrim I was quoted between 4k and 14k.

I had some lightweight seats re-trimmed and even though they utilised the existing leather (as it matched my interior already) and only swapped the Alcantara, the total cost was £1200. I'd probably say that was £200 for materials and the rest labour.

If you are only having the new front seats trimmed, be prepared for them to look very different to the remaining 12 year-old leather around the cabin. Even if they get the colour close, the grain and finish will be different.
