Hi all,

Looking for a bit of advice....I'd like to re-cover my seats in Redd, but im not sure what to cover them with...

The seats I have in him are from an FTO and currently look like bus seats :X

I dont think i'd like leather...so some sort of fabric would be good :D

 

Thanks in advance...

Alcantara is the most expensive material that you can buy, but is's also the best - if you pay anything under £70 (ish) a meter then it is not Alcantara, it is a cheaper alternative that people are trying to sell as Alcantara.

 

Cheaper alternatives include micro suede (or suede faux).

 

Check out our website "Colour Swatches & Samples" section, it may help give you some inspiration: LINK

 

 

Thanks

Thanks very much Andy! How many metres does an average seat need? Trying to work out a rough price.
