Seat upholstery?

Postby Da Nag » Thu Aug 16, 2012 9:20 am

Anyone know of a good local place to get a seat re-worked and/or upholstered? Don't need anything fancy - just a couple older dirt bikes.

Hi-Rick has done the foam for my bike seat (I supplied the cover), re-upholstered my captain's chair twice and settee cushions for my gillnetter. I like his work and also recommend.

I see two shops on South Bayview. One is called Scotts Auto Trim and the other one is Custom Upholstery Shop.
Which one is it?

Two different places show up on google maps but are the same place- Scotts Auto Trim.
Rick is the brother that use to do upholstery but retired.
Anyway Scott built a seat to my design with a material that matched the old seat just right.
He did an excellent job and did it in a week.
