Classic 9 Upholstery review

Good afternoon,

I am considering having some interior work completed by Classic 9 in Dearborn, Mi.

Has anyone had experience with their work?

I know they have a great reputation for their leather goods but I am considering a carpet and headliner installation in addition to some recovering work.

I would appreciate any feedback.

Thank you

I bought headliner, carpet, and had parts recovered in leather. They did not install anything. I'm taking car of that locally. I'm very pleased with the quality of the materials and the workmanship. Plus, Bob, the owner, is super helpful. I highly recommend them.

I have bought carpet and seat kits from Classic 9. They are superb, and the customer service is great. Bob Budd is a great guy. You won't be sorry dealing with him.
Good luck,
Dave

I would not hesitate using Bob. He has done a few items for me and I have been very happy with the quality and service.

I had them do some interior carpet trim (door pockets and leather work on a custom wrapped roll bar). The quality is stunning; equivalent to factory, if not better. I also had them modify my tonneau cover to accommodate the roll bar, and it was perfect. Highly recommend. As the others have said, Bob Bud and his team are THE BEST. And, oh, by the way, his prices are good, too. You won't be sorry.

I took some upper seat covers from Classic 9 to a local shop for installation and they raved about how nice those covers were. How often does that happen? Classic 9 is highly recommended.

Bob is a great guy who does excellent work and stands behind everything he does. I had him do my dash and steering wheel in my 86 both in leather. They came out amazing and the price was what I consider to be very reasonable. What I like best about him is when you call he answers the phone himself and addresses all of your questions or concerns. I will use him whenever I need any upholstery work.

I had a steering wheel recovered and a piece of carpet he matched for me. Excellent workmanship from this shop for sure.

Hi.
Sure you got what you needed from the prior replies.......but I'll also add I was VERY PLEASED with the leather bottom seat covers Bob made for my 84 Targa.

Lots of reading, replacement foam, correct hog rings/hr pliers, new SS wire + the covers from Classic 9 and the seats are the same as delivered from the factory.

Not a 911, but this is his kit on my 928 seats:



Good luck,
Dave
