I like the look of the TMI kits, and Im happy to order them in, but I dont think I could do a professional job installing them. I want to redo the seats, roof and panels in a 1971 superbug. Anyone have someone to recommend? I contacted a guy who said if I purchased the materials its would cost me $1.2k max, but he didnt seem very professional. Im in the NE, I'm not looking to penny pinch, but would hate to spend $1k in materials and have it look like a $2 job.

Are you close enough to get the car over Melbourne way for a good job? There is a few very good Vw specialist trimmers over that way.

Thanks so much for all your advice. I'll try Allan first, he's a bit closer. Would you guys mind giving me an estimate on how much I should expect to pay if I supply the TMI seats, panels, roof liner and clips?

I just spoke to Allan, what a lovely man! He is all booked out until Feb, but gave me a price guide. I love it when you find someone who is helpful and offers to help. What a pity, I really wanted the car finished this year. I got the impression he is a craftsman worth waiting for though.

no probs.....here's a few photos of his work! You won't be disappointed!! He is the best that I have come across. Place some pics of your trim when completed.
