   Hello lads, i would like some views on how much it would cost to re-trim 2 front half leather GTI seats. Using black leather and suede. Price of leather and suede and trimming.
   
   I am sure Pred_VTR done it but he aint online at the moment.
   
   Thanks guys

   some where near £400 i would guesstimate.
   
   Also the center bit is Alcantara not suede which is rather expensive in its self.

   Cheaper to buy a mint set for £400 then sell your older ones

   aye not too bad, just the usual wear and tear, expected of seats that are 6 or 7 years old

    Not sure tbh, the colour does not help the price.
