Hi Guys
I’m looking for peoples experiences with upholstery suppliers in Australia. Any recommendations and equally any to steer clear of.
What I’m looking for is to purchase the upholstery covers to get shipped to NZ and get them fit to seats over here. I’m interested to hear others experiences who have done it this way particularly around fit and quality.
The one that caught my interest on eBay was Just Upholstery in Sydney. Does anyone have any experience with them.

Hi Steve, As far as my research went all above are good recommendations. My only reservation on Winner would be the possible price. I actually used a trimmer from my home state, Tony - All Trim. He does a lot of classics like the others. Seats have only been covered recently so can't comment on durability but certainly look good. He would also be an 8 week+ wait. I think one of the critical things is what material they use. I'm pretty sure most use Novatex material which has a good reputation. Good luck with it. Cheers Ron
