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!

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.

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 progressMatty28i wrote:Hi Dave,

I've seen the finished result tonight.
Spot on Mike!
Dave, the plastics, door pulls, etc. can be matched with plastikcote spray paint from wilko's satin black.

Re: HUGE Thanks to Turbo Mike!!
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 anywayMatty28i wrote:I've seen the finished result tonight.
