LX570 Re-Upholstery (1 Viewer)

[hntashdjian]

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to share these pictures and videos. Yesterday we had an upholsterer come in with a customers LX570 who was going to redo the front and back seats.

We matched the leather to one of our original Jaguar colors, and it was an almost dead on match to the Lexus leather. Then we chalked all the patterns for the perforated sections and ran it through our perforation machine.

That's awesome! Any idea of the LX's year? I am guessing an '08. My '10 leather still looks good... well, at least to me. I'll be having the 80 series redone this next year though. Too bad I am no longer in SoCal. (Ok, not so bad... traffic here is so much better.)

Not sure what year the car was, but the interior was in good shape, not sure they they were redoing it. What's the interior color in your 80? I just redid my drivers seat with some new MB Tex.

The 80 has the gray interior. I was thinking of doing the full leather replacement/seat heater install. The truck has not made it home yet. My wife and daughter are flying up to Seattle on Friday and will be driving it home on Saturday. It will be a little while before I do the interior, as I NEED to travel to Ireland and Scotland for my 25th anniversary in September and ALL expenses are on hold until after that trip.

I don't recall the name of the shop, but I know they drove about 2 hours to get to us since we were able to match the color and perforate while they waited.

Yes, we are a upholstery supply shop and we specialize in high end European leathers and carpets.

Let me know when your ready.

I redid my 80s driver seat in a new original MB Tex vinyl, which is used in the new E-Class. Really good quality vinyl and the color was pretty close to the original. My main priority was to use a good quality vinyl rather then get a perfect color match. Here's a pic of the finished seat:

That is very pretty! Very nice job! How hot is that material in the summer months?
