Awesome! Obviously big fan of double stitched diamonds Lines look straight. Too bad your upholster didn't measure out the diamonds to end them evenly though. Nevertheless great work.

Thanx mike! I'm more worried about the lines being straight and the fabric tight, and it didn't help that I gave him a 4 day dead line.. I was a little sketchy about doing suede cuz of the way it wouls look with the mb tex.. Like 2 different shades od black.. But I guess wen its complete it would look good as a whole.. I was going to do regular single stitch but he showed me some double stitch work and for only $50 more I went with the double

Looks nice

Can either of you tell (or PM) me the shop that is doing your interior work? I can't find anyone local here to do it. The locals here only use kits like Katskins and stuff, no truly custom work, at least not on a new Benz. Found a couple places that do restoration of old cars but they said they wouldn't touch a new car with side air bags and stuff.

I'm interested in shipping my seat covers out, at least the fronts, to have them worked on.

TIA!
