Default Looking for seat upholsterer in Brisbane

Can anyone recommend a seat upholsterer in Brisbane to repair a seat base? The side bolstering foam on the drivers seat in my wife's WRX has collapsed and I was hoping to get it repaired.

Thanks!

Two words. Doyles Leather. google, find closest store & be amazed. They can do anything, like two tone black n blue with Tickford wings $1800 for both buckets, best Nubuck front & back of seat. Where ever you go, $850-900 per seat for leather but not always Nubuck. Doyles lets you look through all the hides & explains the process. Very busy, but quick work.

Thanks

But the seat is in a WRX, I'm not sure if the missus will like Tickford logos on the seats

But the seat is not leather so it's just a cloth repair job.

Simple fix to all of your issues. Sack the Subaru & get a Ford. Some have Turbo's as well!

Drew at Leather FX.... Still waiting for him to reply to a txt & return an email.
