G60 Overhaul (Yup u guessed it more bits)

Not a bra, nooooooooooooooooo [:^(]

 

Looks excellent, fantastic job

 

Well for those that havent seen it driving round she's now complete with a bra...


Recaro's hmmmmmm...


Just back from being re-trimmed in Aston Martin leather (only thing that would match the mk2 golf leather) Autotrim have done an amazing job............





Seats sitting on recaros subframes which actually sit lower then the standard mk2 subframes i was quite suprised at this



SNS stage 5 chip awaiting to be fitted....


Once this has arrived from the group buy and been fitted....


All in all been an expensive month so far

Couple of pics of the seats in the car just grabbed them whilst its ****ing down with rain

 

those seats look the part, looking sweet as mate!!!

 

Ian, it looks fantastic. Hard to believe you have changed so much since you bought it, but preserved the car that it was, and built on it sooooo much since buying it.

 

Absolutely unrecognisable seats from when I last saw them Wooh, nice one.

Did you use a local trimmers, or Recaro's trimmers in the UK?

They are actually a local re-trimmers in Ivybridge, Devon. They specialise in Mohair hoods normally but do seats as well. They also did Lee_GTI's interior and after seeing Lee's i new where to take the seats. They also replaced the bolsters so the seats are better then new pretty much very pleased with them i must say

I was dreading taking them to a second rate re-trimmers like you see done in most Max P show cars where you can pick the leather off the seat, lol just looks so tacky.

 

You have a fantastic looking car there, loving your spic and span engine bay!!
Like the rear lights too, just got a pair myself and think they look good but one thing, the indicator bulbs Theres a horrible orange tint to the lights now, you found a way of getting round it?

 

You need silvervision bulbs.

Awesome car. Sorry if i missed it, but what recaros are they? Or rather what car are they from?

 

They are Recaro N-Joys you get them from recaro directly yourself

 

you actually take it out in the rain

 

how much was teh leather re-trim???

i need to get my mk1 rocco seats done at some point.

cheers

 

Retrimmed using Aston Martin leather? That's bloody cool, that is!

 

I know its sacrilige

Re-trim cost 675

 

Was that just the two fronts of the fronts and rear? What about doorcards?

 

Two front seats for the whole lot you can kiss good buy to nearly 2000
