car soft hood fitting- help needed

lover_guy_001 · 29th July 2009, 19:56

Hi
I am in Calcutta and I have a San Storm. My hood was losing its look so I have got a new hood for my car from San Motors.

But I am facing a problem.It is unstitched and has got many other accessories for the fitting purpose..I am clueless about where to get it fitted? Do you people know anyone in Calcutta who can do this hood fitting for me ..

Any idea?I dont want to spend alot going to some merc service centre and getting ripped...and i dont think ,they'll be willing to do it for a non merc car...

please help ...

San Motors suggested that the upholstery people will do the job for me but then I dont want it to look tacky ..
