SoCal upholstery shop?

**AR4me** · #1 (**permalink**) 07-07-2009, 08:49 AM

Can anyone recommend a good and not excessively expensive shop/person to do upholstery in SoCal? The closer to Laguna Niguel the better, but I can drive and drop off interior.
Thanks in advance for any pointers,
Jes

Jes,

It's not close to you, but Auto Upholstery by AJ in Northridge (right next door to Santo's Italian Car Service) does excellent work. Give Anthony and Santo a call (818-701-1614) and they can give you the number, I don't have it here at work. They did my Super, and I've seen a lot of their work, they did some work on Anthony's GTA as well.

I will back up the previous statement. AJ's did my GTV and their work was great, and very reasonable.

Try Mikes' in Mission Viejo 949-3809859. He has done good work for me in the past.

By the Jes, what are you going to do, put an interior back in "Roxanne"?

Luis Sifuentes at Auto Interiors of Mission Viejo did my Sprint GT. Luis does great work at a reasonable price, though he takes his time. His shop is at 25651 Taladro Circle, unit E, in Mission Viejo. 949 855 2295.

Hi Jes, just had the seats in my '88 Spider re-upholstered by Perez Auto Upholstery in Pasadena (1129 S. Fair Oaks Ave, Pasadena, CA 91105 (626) 799-7945‎) and although it's a bit far a-field, I was astonished by their attention to detail, timeliness (< two days), and low cost. I'll post some pics when I get a chance if you'd like. Cheers, Stuart

so what are the typical cost to get a pair seats reupholstered these days if you provide them with the materials?

Here are some shots of my recently re-upholstered seats, thanks to the folks at Perez Auto Upholstery in Pasadena. FWIW, the covers are a high-quality vinyl in keeping with my lower-spec'd Spider "Graduate." As to total cost, I ought to be circumspect, but let's just say that nine hundred divided by ten times three would get you in the ballpark...

Looks good, thanks for posting. Depending on where you put the parentheses in your equation it can get really cheap

Even the more expensive place for the parentheses appears quite reasonable. I'm looking to redo the rear seat cushion and seat back in my Milano in black leather with perforated leather in the center sections (to match some comfy front Sparco seats I have).
