I need Seat Leather and a top
I really need new leather and have found different sources but wanted to get your feedback on your experience, any feedback is really appreciated.
My interior is blue by the way, not sure of the official Porsche name of the blue but it is a 1984 911. I also need a top but I am more focused on finding a great leather source first, any feedback on lakewell? Thanks Again for any help!

That's fond- just deglaze

I personally cannot say enough good things about Lakewell. I want to preface by stating that I have Black Partial Leather Sport Seats (1986) so color matching was not an issue. Mr. Van der Meer sent me free swatches on both the vinyl and the leather beforehand to check (perforations were perfect!) and the seat covers themselves were of the highest quality. I cannot be more pleased.

Awesome!!! Thanks for the reply AND pics! Did you do the work yourself or have a shop do it? I have been reading and watching videos and does not appear to be too difficult (famous last words)
thanks again

I forgot to ask, I need seat foam as well, mostly the seat bottom more than anything. Where did you source that from, if you did at all?

Hi seafood10- I had a local upholsterer do the work- He did build up/add to the existing foam (especially on the base) but apparently he didn't have to add that much to bring back to shape.
