Any recommendations for a good upholstery shop in the Portland area?

[e28jay]

Can any of you recommend a good shop around PDX to redo the front sport seats in my e28. I had a place picked out but then they went out of business. I've been talking to one other shop but before I bite the bullet I wanted to check here for recos.

Thanks!

they have both had shit done in the PDX area

I looked into this in the fall, and "Beaverton Auto Upholstery" came with good recommendations. I emailed the guy back and forth and he seemed honest, straightforward, and very knowledgeable. Their cost is not unreasonable either. Hoping to still get work done there. Someone on r3v actually had their interior re-done at BAU, looked stunning.

curious how much this costs as well.

[Matt-B]

yes, Darin used them for his white leather in his tech2 vert.

just confirmed. there great

Yeah Beaverton Auto Upholstery is the best place in the area. My buddy is using them to redo the whole interior in his classic Fiat Abarth 500

do you guys know how much they ended up paying?

[butters]

from my quote:

labor is $425 per seat, including shaping foam etc. vinyl is $80 per seat (BMW leather is $200 per seat). $60 per headrest for vinyl, $90 for leather.

You guys rock and those prices seem really good. I've been quoted from $850 - $1300 just for the two front sport seats in leather. I'll check this place out and keep you all updated. Thanks!

[Mauiwowi]

wow thats it! im going to look into this.

[e28jay]

Got an email back from BAU to do all leather but vinyl back, cost would be $550-$600 per seat.
