Where to get seats recovered????

I just picked up seats from a 83 trans am datona edition. The are the recaro seats I'm looking for somewhere that can recover them. I'm not wanting a factory recover as they are going in my 91. I'm in Ohio anyone know of a good place to get this done?

Try the regional boards for stuff like this. Or ask around at your local car shows.

Just start calling upholstry shops in your local phone book. I had the seats in my truck done by a guy in Belpre Ohio and he did awesome work. Not sure if thats too far from you or not. Just be sure to warn them in advance that if it isn't at least factory quality work that you are not going to be happy. It cost me a little over 500 bucks to get my 2 front seats done in grey leather.

Had mine done at a local shop near my house. I went the less expensive way and used other than stock OEM material. He did all four seats, door panels, sail panels, headliner and visors for about $1800. That price also included rebuilding the foam in the seats, new door panel boards, abs headliner and some custom embroidery on my headrests.

Classic Industries sells a kit to recover front and rear and I think the whole kit is 320.00 I just wished they had the camaro embroderd in to the back rest. And thats way way cheaper than you will get it done.I was given a price of 300 a seat(front) was going to go 4th gen bot cheapest I found them was 800 for a full set.
