I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

ReUpholstering...

Post by JaySmith » December 24, 2004

I have a chance to get a set of special edition Recaro SRDs. However I do not like the pattern thats along the inner portion. I was wondering if its at all possible to reupholster the middle portion of the seats, and if so roughly how much would it cost to do?

yes its deff possible. look around your area for any upholserting shops. check out there work... since the seat area is pretty easy to get to the upholserting shouldnt be to hard. so the price might be decent...

I know David Ying owner of a local shop here in Winnipeg had one of his torn Recaros semi redone. The outside of the seat was roughly $400 to redo, but he said the middle portion is was costs the most.
