Just messaged seat surgeons. Leather!!!!

Featured Replies

Well just been paid and looking at the Napa leather. For those who have got the retrim which colours work best.

All black? Black and white like the pic?

Personally, I think the all black leather works best however the Octavia vRS style retrim above is more keeping with the vRS "style".

How clean are your fabric seats? If you keep them pristine, you can risk it with colours. Otherwise I'd stick to dark greys and blacks.

Yeah there clean as. I go mad at any stains lol.

SWMBO got in with un dry fake tan on the legs. Grrrrr, boy did I curse her

I soooooooooo want a leather retrim. My fabric seats are looking worn and white is a bitch to keep clean.

If I got it done I'd prolly go with all black, and just have the vRS logo and maybe skoda-green stitching to liven it up?

I like the all black but as a subtle difference have the inserts done in a perforated leather with dark grey stitching.

Not sure if anyone has had this done but I think it would look OEM but bespoke enough.

Out of interest how much is a retrim? And what does it include?

Would it look odd as seats only?

My seats are filthy, whats best to clean them up?

£800 for nappa leather - includes seats, headrests and door cards

I got mine done for £500..... what bargin

Where did you get them done for £500?

I opted for all black leather with black stitching. You can see the pictures of my Fabia here.

Hi

Had mine done Monday in Nappa - the £800 special offer on Nappa ended at the end of June.

See pics .... went for silver/navy with silver on the doors to lighten it up a bit.

I'm very happy with the result - Paul is a great guy who does all he can to satisfy the customer, although his main business is with dealers, he welcomes smaller orders.

That looks really nice, Ricko. :thumbup:

That looks really nice, Ricko. :thumbup:

Thanks - I haven't heard anyone say it was a bad idea to go for it ...

No more dump runs in this car - SWMBO's is now reserved for that ! :rofl:

I i take it than that the seats don't have side air bags?

That's a really nice job there Ricko.

If I'm not mistaken, that's the first Seat Surgeons re-trim I've seen on here with the VRS badge where it should be.

All these answers and more are just a search away! :)

:iagree: Just what I was thinking :thumbup:

Oh, and answering the question above - yes, they can cater for cars with side airbags.

Steve

Have those seats in Ricko's Fabia got perforated leather centres though?

Just thinking that's maybe why the VRS badge is in the normal place.

Yeah good point.

Hmmmm decisions decisions lol

I had been toying with the idea of leather for a while, but my girlfriend's got a LE Fabia VRS and it's blooming cold on my back on a winter's day.

Would be nice if the centres could be done in something either like the normal cloth or alacantra?

Yep, decisions, decisions.

Might get the alloys powdercoated instead!

Thanks for the tip but i don't see how it's relevant when the question is related to the thread ;)

Correct - unperforated :)

Just not sure I like the perforated look, and not sure it would wear as well with the Nappa on the seat base

Not sure if that's the reason for relocating the badge ?
