Can Anyone recommend a good upholsterer shop in SoCal?

[Roland]

I want to have my car's interior redone. JPM does a great job but I'm not crazy about having to take the interior apart, shipping it out of state and then having to put it back together again, not to mention being without a car for more than just a few days. I was wondering if anyone can recommend a reputable shop in So.Cal?

Where are you located?

That would help us send you to someone close.

I'm in the LA/Glendale area but don't mind traveling a few miles if there's someone good out there.

The guy I was talking to (and got some minor stuff done by) seemed like a good guy and did a lot of stuff for GAS... HRmm, let me see if I can find his info...

Chatsworth Auto Upholstery
21300 Devonshire St Unit 17
Chatsworth, CA 91311
(818) 882-5161

There's always some of the well known ones down in OC like Bill Dunn (who did someone's car around here, and it looked great)

Thanks LiquidPT. Bill Dunn does good work, I love what he did for Russ but they're a little high in price. I called them a few times but never got a return call (assumed they were too busy) so I thought I'd look for someone else. I'll try these guys in Chattsworth. Thanks for the lead and please keep them coming.

And the exhaust shop next door is worth a stop over as well. He does most stuff for David Ellis Chrysler and Galpin Ford. He also did a downpipe install/exhaust custom fab for LiquidPT. He put together a nice rich, nasty sounding exhaust for him..

Thanks Bosch, I'll check it out tomorrow while I'm there.

LiquidPt, I stopped by to see the upholsterer you recommended in Chatsworth. He does very good work and appears to be a really good guy, but was a little hesitant to take on my Sols. His hesitation was even more clear when he gave me his estimate. In his defense, it is a lot of work and he does need to modify some of the joints to make sure they fit properly after adding the leather. I'll keep looking but I do appreciate your lead, thanks.
After next Saturday's Irvine Cars n' Coffee meet, I'm going to visit Bill Dunn again and see if he can be persuaded to lower his estimate a little.
