How much to reupholster (sp?) interior

[Structure240sx]

one of the few other things i want to do to my car is to get the interior redone. i want the seats and headliner done in normal black fabric i guess valore. then the carpet in black and the door panels in black vinyl i guess. i think im goint o forget about racing seats. anyone have an idea of how much this would cost to have done?

hmmmm i know katzkin will cost around 1000 bux for the whole interior, and their quality is guaranteed...I am sure u can find not as reputable places that can do it for cheaper.

[whiterps13]

please post if you find anything. im kinda curious also, considering my '92 grey carpet is starting to show its age.

IMO just get your own material and have an upholster place do it for you.

I did not do my seats but i got my door panels, carpet and glove box done for 200 down here in FL.

For carpet, I'd try ACS molded-carpet kits. They're $199 at JC Whitney and more info can be found at the ACS website here. Seems like something you could easily do yourself.

I had a JC Whitney carpet kit in my first 510. It was high quality, and even stayed in place exceptionally well considering that I didnot even use any adhessive to hold it in place. If you were willing to put 3 hours, instead of 30 minutes into your carpetting project, you could have a really nice JC Whitney interior.

Just make sure that you get the expensive kit. When I was shopping, they had three different price points. The inexpensive ones are just that. The mid range ones were kind of like 89 vs 87 octane... If you're gonna take the jump, you might as well go all the way to 91-93 octane carpetting.

I dunno about doing your own headliner. I tried once, I'd never do it again. It's the kind of thing that gets easier each time you do it, so you might as well pay someone who has done it several hundred times the cash to do it right.

Does anyone sell a molded carpet for the s14?Because as far as I know they only have them for the s13.Josh

The one I posted above is for the S14. (click JC Whitney).

They used vinyl on the car. I went to him recently and he raised his prices. (fag) But I got it done at this guy next to u pull it in davie fl. Its called Daniel Auto Upholstry.

The headliner...actually very easy, so long as you have the right materials. If you do it in leather, soak the leather first, it makes it pliable and flexible. Vinyl, have a good heat gun, careful not to melt the vinyl. I used a suede leather for my interior. It turned out really nice. Took a lot of time and patience though. Total cost, around $250 for door panels/dash/headliner, odds and ends inside.

Hmmms does anyone know where someone could get a molded carpet kit for the s13s? I really badly want one for my 93 to convert the carpetting to black from the coffee stained grey the previous owner left me. Thanks =)

[ca18det_boy]

I did all mine myself for like $150

[gounc14]

How hard is it?

[ca18det_boy]

its not that hard at all. If you can give your car a basic tune-up then you can redo your interior. Its mostly just common sense

[gounc14]

Just to know, is anyone aware of a molded kit for the hatchbacks at all?

[ca18det_boy]

no but tell me what you want done and we might be able to work something out.
