#1: Some of my trim work! Author: Karisma, Location: Sleaford, LincolnshirePosted: Sun Aug 12, 2012 1:49 pm ---- Just thought I'd show a recent interior I've just completed as i thought you might be interested. Only the first phase has been completed until I get a better sewing machine.
Any questions or comments are welcome.
( sorry for crappy iPhone pics)
Cheers

#13: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: Karisma, Location: Sleaford, LincolnshirePosted: Sun Aug 12, 2012 2:46 pm ---- Manager at where?
I'm only just starting out at the moment, im self taught and Its just my hobby. Obviously every job is bespoke and priced accordingly. I did those green bits in vinyl for £250. For a full interior inc seats & doorcards etc in leather would be closer to the 1k mark.
Cheers

Punto mk2 dashboard smooth and trimmed.

#18: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: SWHdi, Location: United KingdomPosted: Mon Aug 13, 2012 3:32 pm ---- Not keen on the colour, but the work is first class, if i could sell a kidney legally i'd get a full interior for the ol' SW!
#19: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: 138Andy, Location: NottsPosted: Mon Aug 13, 2012 5:15 pm ---- his prices are very reasonable dude just ask for a quote
#20: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: Karisma, Location: Sleaford, LincolnshirePosted: Tue Aug 14, 2012 12:04 am ---- Cheers Andy.
Just to note to everyone. Currently I don't have the means of trimming seats or steering wheels due to not having the correct sewing machine. I am saving up so seats will be an option as soon as possible.
Thanks for all the comments.
If anyone is interested then pm me and I'll see what I can do for you.
Sean.
#21: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: Andy_, Location: Isle of ManPosted: Tue Aug 14, 2012 1:05 am ---- This is really well done
#22: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: Karisma, Location: Sleaford, LincolnshirePosted: Tue Aug 14, 2012 1:13 am ---- Got 2 more interiors booked in so I'll have more to show soon.
Cheers
#23: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: jayz206gti, Location: TamworthPosted: Tue Aug 14, 2012 1:38 am ---- Your work is impressive. Do you have a generic price list?
#24: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: Karisma, Location: Sleaford, LincolnshirePosted: Tue Aug 14, 2012 8:46 am ---- Jayz206gti - not really no as I have lots of different materials ranging in price. Vinyls at £10 per metre or at the other end of the scale I have genuine alcantara at around £100 per metre.
Plus usually no two jobs are the same. So I have to price accordingly to exactly what needs doing.
Cheers
Sean
#25: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: Andrew, Location: Black Country Ay IPosted: Tue Aug 14, 2012 12:01 pm ---- The quality looks good, its nice to see people learning a trade and having a go at it on their own
#26: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: Karisma, Location: Sleaford, LincolnshirePosted: Tue Aug 14, 2012 12:07 pm ---- Ive realised it's something I want to do for the rest of my life so I might as well get good at it.
Cheers
#27: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: Karisma, Location: Sleaford, LincolnshirePosted: Sun Aug 19, 2012 9:03 am ---- I'm willing to sort out a generic price for 206 interior panels retrimmed if there was enough interest.
I won't call it a group buy as I can't take in 10 sets of doorcards in one go but i could do something like :
4 doorcards, glovebox door and gear gaitor £ ( generic price )
4 doorcards, glovebox door, drivers side lower dash panels. Speedo surround and gaitor £ ( generic price )
#28: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: Karisma, Location: Sleaford, LincolnshirePosted: Thu Aug 23, 2012 8:28 am ---- Steering wheel trimmed in black leather with grey stitch.

#30: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: Andrew, Location: Black Country Ay IPosted: Sun Sep 30, 2012 1:59 pm ---- Work looks great, you could do with a website
Do you do seats too?
#31: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: Karisma, Location: Sleaford, LincolnshirePosted: Sun Sep 30, 2012 3:24 pm ---- I can't do seats just yet as I'm saving for the sewing machine I need to do them professionally.
I do most other stuff. This Audi was a lot of work but the owner is happy so that's all that matters.
Cheers for the comment.
#32: Re: Some of my trim work! Author: Tolkienfan001, Location: SpaldingPosted: Sun Nov 25, 2012 3:23 am ---- My 206 would look awesome in the Red Leather! If only I could find a wad of money....
