Icon5 Custom Upholstery

I was looking around to have my door panels re-done. Came across this Video. Anyone else have this sort of work done?

Costs to have such work done?

Thanks.

I good amount of money. I priced one place $600 JUST for the front seats. Go to an upholstery store and buy your own materials, find someone who does upholstery on the sides and have them do it. $300 for the two front seats if I buy material and have an individual do it. As for that video... if he went through all the trouble to have that done, why keep the beige e-brake handle, chrome door handles, beige head rest clips, beige seat belts, beige plastic covering around the bottom of the seats. That dude was ignorant.

Are you serious?

1900$ for all that work. It looks great.

For a lot of places this is location specific and goes hand in hand with the quality of the fabric and work. In addition to that it changes the price if you provide all the parts already separated and good to go.

The S2000 guys use the following guy for their work (door panels, dash, etc)

Some of his work is here:
