Got the seats done yesterday

Got my Verna interiors done yesterday. Well it was raining the whole day so he only managed to get the seats done. Flooring + steering next saturday.
Done on Peters road. Choice Seat Zone, (formerly gaylook I think) as suggested by one of the members in this thread. Can someone please check out the snaps in my thread in the initial ownership reviews and tell me if the work hes done is good. I'm not able to upload the snaps into this post. Dunno why . Think I don't have privileges for this post?

Looks really neat to me. Was it 4600 inclusive of everything?

Any reason why you didn't opt for a beige steering wheel cover?

Like I mentioned in my thread, 4.6k was only for the seats and yes I do think hes done a really nice job. It was constantly raining, so he said he will do the flooring and the steering next saturday morning. Im opting for 2/3rd the dark beige, and bottom 1/3rd of the steering wheel the light beige colour.
Flooring comes to 1600 and the cost of the steering wheel varies between the materials and if its mono or dual tone colouring. My final price quote was probably around 400 bucks or so more then what he originally quoted, but he guaranteed that his work will be excellent, and the seat covers have lived up to that. I'm more then satisfied . He offered me a perfume for the car instead of any discount. Hes also offered to do some polishing work okkn the bumper where i have that big scratch. Hoping that I can get him to do all that without any charges or something.

Jewajee was saying the Gsport issues was with stitches coming off. Not sure if he was pushing me for Autoform.

Floor Mats-- Not Foot Mats

hi i got the floor mats for 1550 @ adamjee near the satyam cinema annexe parking.in fact the same building.it is a readymade one and fits properly.

I enquired about the seat covers but the shopkeeper really didnt show any interest in letting me know the rates.because he was busy with a skoda laura customer (actually a prospect).the laura guy enquired the rates and just went off saying i will get back.but

This is called a BAD ATTITUDE and most of the shop keeper have it .....

Okay somehow i got the quote .it was 4600 for the pu seats.it was a branded one ,not gsport.

Check out choice seat zone (the shop name is put up as gaylook). Its on peters road in that new college complex. (theres a flyover in front of the road coming out of the satyam theatre main entrance, dont climb on that flyover, its on the left. Poor directions I know )
I just finished my interiors work today and hes done a swell job. 4600 for dual tone art leather seats brand is jackspeed, dual tone art leather steering cover 375 and PU flooring 1600 labour 300. You can check out the snaps in the initial reviews page, "2 week old verna" is the thread name.
His contact no is 9840747705 - Mahesh. He and his bro run the shop and theyre very nice people, so I guess after your mentioned experience this would be better for you. The guy who does the labour has been with them for over 25 years I think so he does a very fine job. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Got my set customized with matching doorpads. Was never a believer in direct after market fitments.
