HUGE Thanks to Turbo Mike!!

Post by SmokeEm »

Got my mate Mike custom trimming the door cards on my P100 that I am building currently.

He asked me to pop in to make sure I was happy tonight with the 1st one..

Happy? I was totally blown away!

Not only has he covered them with gorgeous black leather, but he also used his own flair to make a panel on them out of the Ford perforated leather that will perfectly match the seats and steering wheel! Awesome job at mates rates.

I couldn't be happier!


CheeRS Mike :applaud:

Hi Dave,

All I could see on your last update was loads of pictures of cat's.

I hope Mike hasn't been using the wall paper paste on your pets.

Matty

P.S. Dave

Mike was a time served as a upholsterer, before changing trades.

Ha ha - You leave my cats out of this lol - It's hard to update that thread as I have no 'Real' access to it at present whilst it gets a few finishing touches - when it comes back MOT'd, I still have quite a few things to do myself with it but nowt major. Nice to know you're keeping up with progress :mrgreen:

I've seen the finished result tonight.

Spot on Mike! :applaud:

Dave, the plastics, door pulls, etc. can be matched with plastikcote spray paint from wilko's satin black.

I think I will leave as is Matty as my carpet & dash are grey so should contrast nicely with the door cards and grey pockets. That's the theory anyway :lol:
