suede anyone?

[rongfk]

Due to the overwhelming interest in my suede door panels, i am now offering this service to anyone who would like this done. shipping would be too much of a hastle, so please don't ask. i prefer you to do a drop off. all prices are set prices, due to the high cost on materials. i don't have a sewing machine, so i cant do seats, sorry. but i can repair the foam on your worn out seats.

resume: OK, i once worked for my uncle at his upholstery shop in san Fernando valley, ca. "dooby's automotive" i worked for a little over a year, caught on very quick, and learned a few tricks of the trade, but as all good things go, the business got slow so he had to let me go...:sadwavey: I've done small jobs on my personal cars to stay brushed up on the skills i was taught. "for reference i can later post pics of a couple of things that i have done" i am not a professional, but i am some what of a perfectionist and will treat each job as if it were my own.. i am not a shop, and this is not some retail advertisement, this is all out of my garage. shit, if this was a shop i'd be posting shop prices...lol

* i usually don't get on-line until after 5pm *

"after the 1st job, i really got to see in materials what was needed. after i added everything up my profit was only $70. I'm probably going to boost the price up enough to where id be making $100 profit. even at the new price it'll steal be a bargain, compared to what a shop would charge you! (like double)
i can live with making only a c note off each job. its a lot of work and i want to continue to offer this to the Zilvia family."


"prices are set so please dont ask for a better deal, sorry.."

suede prices

-glove box door $40
-door panel inserts $90
-headliner $100
-dye visors $15 "to match the headliner"

total $245



material info:
this is automotive suede not suede hide the price differance is very big and this is easier to work with. the material color is rated to last a little over a year in the sun. so it would probably be good to tint the windows alittle.
" i can also use other materials upon request.. "


let me know, thanks
ronnie.

suede color options:

"the actual color may differ a little, but this is the best i can do"

[DreamN]

[84GTSR5]

Damn Ronnie the seat looks good, so i guess you fixed it.
How much for the Door panels? I got my own Suede fabric already.

[rican_nick]

:(

would you at least be willing to sell me pre cut material?? I could apply it myself... purrty please.. for a premie. haha.

[tacotacotaco]

[Touge_Monster]

Ha ha owned thanks buddy

[pbcstylez]

where are you located?

[rongfk]

OK, peoples. i did some shopping and got quotes from a few shops, and for what I'm offering the prices ranged from 400-500. i even called my uncle, and he quoted me, a "nephew" price of $360. so in deed you are getting hooked up. "damn, i should of asked for more!" oh, well.

as far as "raceing" seats go, the only thing i can offer, is that i can rap the center cushion of the seats in new material. but there wont be any stitching..

i live in pico rivera, ca 90660.

thanks,
Ronnie.

Do you have any pics of your work on an S14? I know it would be much different than an S13, I was just curious. I'm really interested!

[rongfk]

i havent done any s14's only my s13 fb, and now im curently working on the stuff for another s13 coupe. ive seen the interior of an s14 and the consept is the same just different shapes.

[240cracker]

fuuuckkkk


imma save ur name so i remember to come back 2 u when im ready to do the interior on my project.

nice work

[SiI40sx]

AS SOON AS I get power windows, I'm hitting you up, really nice work and awesome price.

[DreamN]

Thanks Ronnie. Glove box looks even better when installed. Gonna sand that handle and paint it a matching black.

I can definitely vouch for Ronnie. Dude does great work and is very honest about the work he's doing. Currently Ronnie is working on both door panels and my headliner. Oh, and I'll be sure to take some pictures of my glovebox so folks can get an idea how the Onyx suede looks.

Hopefully all is going well with my stuff. Ronnie, remember take your time, no rush dude. :D

[BoostnS13]

Definitely intrested PM sent

[Dr. Greenthumb]

[rongfk]

thread updated!
new prices and pic's of the first job..

so who's next?

[xpl2007]

DAsh ??
Please give me your #?
thanks
pm me...

[Teknolust72]

Can you quote me for doing the door panels, headliner w/ sunroof panel, and wrapping the visors (I dont want to dye it)? model is S14

[GoodOl'S13]

hmmmm Can you wrap visors??

[S13Zilvia_fan]

How much would it be if we got you our own material?

[KwKouki]

+1 on precut door inserts. I would be interested since I live in Florida.

[DreamN]

Ronnie, that looks freakin' sick. Big thanks again! I'm so hoping the rain isn't poring as much or at all so I can pick these up and get you installed pix.

Definitely gonna be dropping your name each time someone comments the interior, and I know they will. Start planning your business cards kid! :D

[irax]

I'm just curious, can you rewrap a steering wheel?

[iwishiwas-all*]

do you have all the templates, like if i order i dont have to send you my doors n stuff, all I have to do is stick it on my doors etc...

[exitspeed]

+1 on precut door inserts. I would be interested since I live in Florida.

+2 on this. I'm sure much of the final outcome is the install, but if you can ship pre-cut inserts that would be baller.

[rongfk]

i haven't made any templates yet, because the demand isn't as much as i thought it would be. the pre cuts are possible to make to ship out, but if you dont know how to work the material in the corners and dips, then you will fail and waste the material. (which is very easy to do) it's not as easy as it seems.
for those of you who are out of state or are unable to bring your stuff to me, pm me with your pre-cut needs. i should be able to work something out for you. as for payment options, i accept pay pal and money orders, but i wont start the pre-cutting until the money is received.

thanks Ronnie.

[fromxtor]

How much does it cost to ship a headliner and who would you ship it through? Also would you re-wrap a steering wheel in suede (real suede)?

[Inland180]

I need some done.. when do you have time?

[rongfk]

now...... i currently have no jobs lined up.
get at me.

Ronnie.

[KwKouki]

How thick is the suede, and is there any kind of backing to it. Do you wrap using spray glue.....I think if I took it to a fabric shop and said "put this on" it could be done, then again time and patience could work out as well. If you are willing to cut templates and ship I am willing to work with the fabric.

[LB.Motoring]

what would be a price on doing a headliner and pillars?

I allready have micro suede, its like, an artificial suede...

what do you think about that material?


i have 5'x30' of it. Ultra black.

[xpl2007]

If you can email me i need some s14 seats done..
Maybe both panals, glove box, dash, head liner, rear speakers section, maybe rear seats, and maybe the whole carpet?
Seats for sure..
[email protected]

[rongfk]

#1 post: i don't have a sewing machine, so i cant do seats, sorry. but i can repair (http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=167934#) the foam on your worn out seats.

#12: as far as "raceing" seats go, the only thing i can offer, is that i can rap the center cushion of the seats in new material. but there wont be any stitching..

sorry guys, this means: no carpet, seats, or dashes.

again sorry,
Ronnie.

[xpl2007]

No dashes ah come on its easy... Thanks anyways..

[DreamN]

Ronnie, I got pix of everything installed. It looks freakin' sweet! Soon as I find my USB cord for my phone I'll post them.

Oh dude, what's that paint called? I want to paint my domelight and a few other little things.

[fromxtor]

what about steering wheels?

[rongfk]

naw sorry no steering wheels.

[spool3n240]

sick work mann, quick question for ya..what glue do you use??

[rongfk]

the material place that i deal with has their own brand. it is the same quality as the one we used to use working for my uncle. i dont have any at the moment, so i am unable to give you any serial numbers.

[spool3n240]

alright, just figured id ask cause i tryed the 3m spray and its leaving rinkels, but thanks anyway
