Tear in side bolster and stitching came out in seat back

Post by Zack »

I have some upholstery issues. There is a tear I want to get fixed in the side bolster and some stitching came loose in the seat back near the console. I was quoted through Baron $185 for the bolster and $95 for the stitching that came loose. Is there a cheaper way to do this? Or do you know of anyone that can do the work and is reputable for less than that? Am I wasting time trying to even bother fixing it?

I have a rip in my drivers seat and asked baron\samer who they use for that sort of thing and he gave me the contact info. I still have it somewhere, or you could ask for it. He might be cheaper going directly to him.
