    Best upholstery work in Los Angeles for interior restore

    I am looking for a place to redo interior of a 325is in Oem leather and Oem carpet. Must have access to correct leather and fabric. Probably going to do this in December but want to line it up and get pricing. Thanks r3v

              I like the shop in Burbank. Met w them today. Going to either have "Stitched", from r3v, make the OEM leather kits and have them install, or have them do it start to finish.

                  Thanks, I'll call GAHH and discuss. I don't think I can deal with San Diego logistically.

                    I know that iron-e30 has a connection, try looking him up. I think the shop is named Hyperion or something along those lines. Great guy and some quality work I've seen from that shop.

                          Sorry it came to that, I budgeted at least 2500-3000$ to get mine done fabric included

                          some people are cheap, and dont understand what costs $, and what does not

                          I have seen people low ball e30 sport seats recovered for 1000$ and ask if guy wants 250$ because other seats are 250$...

                          smh
