Hi All

One of my plans for this year is to have my interior restored. The front seats and arm rest could do with some TLC. Can anyone recommend a company in the Portsmouth area? My steering wheel could really do with recovering as well. Many thanks in advance.

Hi Lee,

I have used Southbound Motor Trimmers in Stockbridge http://southboundtrimmers.com/index.htm it's about 40 mins from Pompey at a guess. Dave Nunn did a cracking repair job on my Porsche Seats at a reasonable price and he usually has a good range of leathers etc; not sure if he stocks BMW specific products but I'd be surprised if he couldn't obtain them.

Had you thought about one of the leather reviving products like liquid leather? https://www.liquidleather.com/

Hope this helps,

Mike

I have used the Furniture Clinic kit a few times now, superb product that will get it looking as good as new.

It is actually really easy to use, worth looking into.



I always use Jack at royal steering wheels to retrim my wheels, used him loads of times and results are excellent.

Did a Maserati for me, superb work

This was my TDV8 RR that I refinished with the furniture clinic kit...







That took around 4 hours to do the front seats. Rears were OK.

The fronts were hard, shiny and cracked.


This was my little 2.8i Z3, at 20 years old they were in a right state, they only took around 3 hours as all black so hardly any masking up, only the plastic on the side.




For £60 and an afternoons work it is well worth considering.
