Recovering recaro sports - Lateral-g Forums

Just looking for opinions here, I have a set of recaro sports removed from a Mitsubishi Evolution. What would you guess the average cost to have a set of these recovered? Nothing fancy. Just looking for a ball park guess, I've never had any upholstery work done so I don't know what to expect. Also, any recommendations of upholstery shops in Missouri or around St.Louis area? Thanks

$500-700 each depending on material

Ouch, maybe I'll be looking for different seats.

I've used Procar Elites a couple builds and really like them

Yeah those look pretty nice, I wonder how far off the mounts are from the recaro, I already modified my floor to mount the recaro sliders.

Not hard to mount any sliders. I need to get my recaro ls done in leather. They way i look at it is i bought them new i would be looking at $1200 per seat. I bought some vintage recaros for $250 and if i spend under $1000 to get them both done i would be very happy. I would still pay up to $1200 to get both of them done.

The pro car elite least were like $600 for the pair. Difference in feel, height, and style is like going from a corvette to a geo metro is quality
