Yer, the done a good job,the stitching the quality of the leather is superb it completly transformed my car. They had my interior for a month as i said to them i will pick it up in a month time so they could take their time on it as i didnt want a rush job. I took the mags(revs,total vauxhall) of car i think that gave them idea of what job i required!

**turbo matt** · 25-04-2005 22:31

yeah its good when you can give them time to do it, they you realy see quality results

**Liam McCabe** · 23-05-2005 23:12
