Auto Interior Shop

Does anyone know of an automotive upholstery shop in the central Illinois area. I have a 1987 IROC that I need the interior completely redone from headliner to carpet. I have most of the material but an accident last year left me unable to bend and move the way I need to. I have this car ready to paint and want to get it finished but can not until I get the inside finished. Please help if you can.

In Springfield, the one listed in the phone book is old and ready to quit. His work reflects this. Another outfit is a pair of brothers that spend so much time fighting with each other that nothing ever gets done or the quality is garbage. I posted this in hopes for some new alternatives or ideas. I have no problem transporting the car to someone that is good.
