Custom FD Seats
Well its been too cold to be productive in the garage so I'm finally finishing up my tan to black conversion.
This is what I've been using to get rid of the tan and it's been working out pretty well. https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-G...0226152126.jpg https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-m...0226152130.jpg Don't mind Bane https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9...302151742a.jpg Finished the seat plastics https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-g...0304151757.jpg And now finally onto the good stuff! https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-h...0304152000.jpg https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-6...0304152001.jpg The seats were done by Austin of ESH Upholstering out of Maryland. He's done a lot of FD seats and it shows, really great work. I also got a matching headliner from him https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-0...03_173045.jpeg Can't wait to get this all in the car! https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-q...215667042.jpeg |

|
I really like those seats. Looks new and retro all at the same time.

Car looks great. Austin just plain does the best work on seats. Damn, he's good. They're among the best of his I've seen.
G I'm eventually going to give him my old tan door panels and see if he can match the seats. That would really set the whole interior off I think. |
man those seats looks killer. U send him your seat to recover? if so how much was shipping and what was the turn around time?

He had made them ahead of time, so I'm not sure how long it would take from scratch. Plus I also had the headliner done, shift boot, and ebrake boot. I would imagine a couple weeks depending on how busy they are. He'll have to chime in to give you the details, but definitely worth it IMO. |

I dropped them off in person while I was on vacation and he had them installed in a couple days.

Can you confirm this is the address and phone #? Phone: (443) 567 6795 1659 Robin Cir Forest Hill, MD 21050-3274 |

thanks for the inspiration on the seat, i decided to use a local guy and i love how they turned out. For reference i got these seats recovered, shift boot and e brake boot done for $950.
Not trying to jack your thread but i thought i share my seats for reference for other ppl. Attachment 626734 |
seats
Seats look perfect. I'm in the process of re-doing my tan interior and have been toying with changing to black. Your experience is a big help- also there are no more Mazda factory reupholstery kits available anywhere in the USA and the used seats I just bought are only slightly better than what I already have. Like Mick Jagger says.... "Paint it black"

nice

Well this took way to long.
Pics of the interior finally going back together. https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...3127f38265.jpg |
