kiwi808 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 There is a guy here on the North Shore who does sweet sweet work on fixing and restoring seats. Grants Auto Upholstery, he does all my work and charges a pretty reasonable hourly rate for his work and he is top notch. He could easily fix the top of your rear seat. He has done similar work on 3 of my cars and is a total wizard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rivalrx Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 Awesome info - thanks for that. I have the coupe front seats in terrible condition however I think I'm going to reco them as I have 1 nos coupe seat base cover from mazda. I've also secured some bilstein shocks for some adjusties so it will be as low as I want it to be - just need some cages for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rivalrx Posted July 8, 2014 Author Share Posted July 8, 2014 Any one know of a wizard metal worker/restorer in Auckland? I got a spare set of rear mazda rx2 garnishes that need a bit of work? My ssr rims are 13" not 14". There I was measuring from top of the bead to the other bead.....yeah......should have measured properly AND read the 13" on the sidewall of the fn tyres..... 13" rims are what I wanted anyway.

rivalrx Posted January 3, 2015 Author Share Posted January 3, 2015 Cheers bud - thanks for the feedback. I'm glad people find it interesting. Today we blasted all the rims and layed down undercoat to seal them. What a palaver sand blasting is......I suggest pay someone to do it haha. Kyteler - you will be happy to know I removed all the weights and re blasted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
