    Custom Leather Covered Door Pull and Door Pocket

    I know I have seen where these were made. Not just the skins but a custom covered door pocket and door pull. I believe it may have been someone from the UK or Germany?

    Ring any bells?

    I want to cover mine with the same leather that my seat covers were made out of so everything matches.

      That's the guy. I found him on EBay and sent him a message to see if I could send him my leather and use that to cover the door pull and map pocket so they perfectly match my new leather seats.

          Beautiful work. I actually sent him an Email asking if I could provide my own leather so the door panels, handle and pocket would match the darker brown leather of the seat covers I bought from Lseat.com and he said he only uses his materials. Too bad as his work looks top notch.

            Found a guy, Jordan, in MS that will do exactly what I am looking to have done.

            He will be covering my door pulls, door pockets, front and rear door panels and probably the rear parcel shelf as well. While I am hemorrhaging money on the interior I might as well do it all at once and get past the pain.

            This is a picture of his work. And from the looks of the steering wheels on his website he does top notch work.

              I'm really interested in doing this, but confused. Do you send in your door cards and he does it, or does he just send you the materials and you install it?

                Depends on who is doing it. The guy on Ebay, he sends you everything complete, in the price it includes the new door card.

                So you can do whatever with your old one. It may be cheaper to find someone local and bring your current door cards to them, but I couldnt find anyone local who knew e30's so I just went with Alexander.

                  With stitchedwheels I am sending him all of my parts and he is recovering them in leather. I did strip the door panels and rear parcel shelf to save him some time. My car is a 2-door and I am having the 2 front door panels, 2 smaller back seat trim panels, the rear parcel shelf, 2 door pulls, 2 door pockets and the two front lower kick panel speaker panels covered.

                    I like the way he matched the stitching on the door pull to the side panel, To me, that's a sign of attention to detail.

                      Here is a teaser picture of the rear parcel shelf covered in leather. More to follow once all the other pieces are covered and shipped.

                          j-f-customs

                          I used this place called j-f-customs on ebay to buy the leather.
                          You have to cover the items yourself...




                          designpart may be "design-part"
                          Jordan at Stitched wheels does good work too.

                          I did my door pulls and pockets in tri-stitched black.
                          I did black leather on the inside of the pockets too because I"m crazy.

                            Looks nice. R U happy with J-F customs? What adhesive did you use on the leather?
