    Wow Thomas! Looks SHARP; like it's factory original.
    Three questions though:
    1. What is "NAPPA" leather exactly? (compared to normal leather)
    2. Who did the re-trimming?
    3. What was the cost?

    Hi Stian,

    Nappa leather is a high quality leather - I think its used in RS Audi's and other top end cars. Much better than factory IMO.

    A local firm did the retrimming - very quick turnaround, and very professional. I decided to use them after seeing the work they did on a friends Honda NSX.

    I didnt even ask for the rippled effect in the seats. They went looking on the net to see how the seats should look and copied it.

    Really nice work.

    Really want to touch it to feel how soft it is.

    No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"
