hey Jacqui,

got your e-mail. Thought I would reply on here with pics.

at the end of the day it all depends on how far you want to go. down side to the panels getting retrimmed is with the extra thickness it hard to get a exact rebuild.

Is the scooby getting retrimmed?

I'm after a set of rear seat covers JC quoted a stupid figure, if they've gone I might ask Transcal for a quote to retrim the back seat.

sure is black nappa leather with blue stitching and WRX stitched in to the seat backs.

compared to what I paid Zeemax for the blue coop I find transcal to be resonable give them a phone but the only thing to remember is that the leather will not match because you've got BMW leather front seats and another make proably bridge of weir on the rear seats.
