Indy's MK5

But yea, lovely colour! How much did you pay for the retrim?

Thanks :)

Half of it was already done, I got that done for free off the guy who fucked me over and dumped my stuff on the street.

So I didn't actually pay for headlining, pillars, boot trim, parcel shelf supports or rear door cards.

The new people at SG styling are charging me £900-950 to finish the job off.

This includes:

-front seats

-front door cards

-dash board trimmed & fitted

-gaiters re-done in alcantara

-door seals in alcantara

-visors re-done in alcantara

-rear door cards re-done to the same quality as front door cards

I'm not sure what drugs the previous trimmer was on, but the job he did was pathetic.

I remember first booking the trim, and he said the following.

"Indy, do not have black stitching as it just looks lazy as if the trimmer couldn't be arsed to change the thread"

I turn up to collect my bits, and guess what, they've been done in black stitching, so what does this tell you about him? He said it himself!!

Then the next batch of bits were done in white stitching???

Words cannot explain how appauling this guy was, the headlining sagged, the rear door card material came away from the card itself, my alarm system was damaged somehow after leaving the car with him for a day.

I'd never recommend him to anyone, just pay that little extra and get it done from somewhere proper!

Cheers :)

I think it's also because only the front of the seat is covered, the backs are fibreglass so did not require covering.

shame the suspense has been ruined bud, you know my thoughts on the colour though 8-)

I realise that there are a small handful of pricks on the internet, but when a moderator is also jumping in on the act, knowing that it will cause a rift - that is what disappoints me, I am referring to SeanVW highlighting the word "purple"

sorry but you put up the ribena thing long before you even started this !!! I've told you before that i really like your car and i even suggested that you not show the interior till youve got it all done, but tbf why post any pics if your not gonna show the colour!!! pointless!!!

I'm sure ill get my wrist slapped but at the end of the day i may be a mod but I'm still an enthusiast .... people need to get off their soap boxes and stop preaching!!!!!!!!!

Seanvw - I think Indy can hint or reveal his car how/when he wants.

Love the car mate and love the colour shame someones spolit it for you Indy and it doesnt help Mods joining in either, they should know better.

I didnt say u was super human or perfect just saying I'm entitled to my opnion, Indy wanted to reveal it when it was finished but thanks to some idiot it ruined it, just sayin there wernt any need to highlight what you did n i think most people thought it was a bit petty. I appreciate what the mods do for this forum, but you got too look at from Indys point of a view.

like you said indy said it best!!!! DONT HATE, APPRECIATE ;)8-)

By the looks of things indy, you might be getting your 72 pages back lol...

When you do update it, send us a link mate!

damn, ox blood red is so last season indy lollll

Guess my black and white prediction was wrong :( :lol:

Indy what did you use for your wiper blank ??

Halfords grommet mate, 3 in a pack for only a quid or so.

Don't think it's the same on a 6N though because the blank is a different shape.

cheers mate iv just got some today :) , and is for my 6n2 i dont have my 6n any more :)

lol at this thread and forum!!

mate, i know you said things on here got bad but this is just ridiculous. continue your thread on edition and when its finished post a pic up on here for the people who actually want to see a show car completed.

i think the racism and petty comments all boils down to jealousy at the end of the day. so dont worry about it bro as your car will do the talking when its done.

as for the project so far...your killing it. end of rant.
