D&C Trim at the old TVR factory come recommended. Haven't used them myself (yet) but I have seen their work and it is very good. Quite competitive on price too. Might as well let the guys who did it in the first place do it again.

Just got my wedge re-carpeted by D&C. Great job and 2 nice blokes, I'd certainly recommend them. Give them a call.

Must have a new wedge lined up Jonny? as the hood on your 350 is mint, just like the rest of it.

OK Inspector Rob, no deals done yet but seen a nice 390SE that might need a new hood, just doing my sums first.

Thanks again lads, i've heard these lads were very good they quoted me £640 for a new mohair hood, i suppose it's like every else you only get what you pay for.
Spoke to Chris a while ago and was very interesting talking to him.

Hi Jonny,

I got my 400 SE done at D&C Trim, and I am pleased with the result. You are welcome to have a look at it if you wish (Ayrshire)

As a yardstick South West trimmers (which I know is rather a long way from you!) were charging £350 a couple of years. Have seen their work and it is excellent
