Re-trim, do bolsters get re-done?

I'm in 2 minds whether to get my recaro's trimmed in leather or whether to just buy a new pair in the fake leather that they come in (meant to be harder wearing).

 

When a retrim is done do the bolsters automatically get sorted out? Obviously through the years the foam has taken a bit of a pounding in certain areas creating sag, just wondering what happens with a re-trim?

 

I can buy the foam new but it is pretty expensive. Is it normally sorted out as part of the trim or is it an additional cost, just so I know what to ask for :)

For new bolsters its extra normaly but you could have the original ones re padded.

 

But any good trimmer would advice you to get new foam bolsters for that perfect job.

Cheers bud, that settles that for me.... new seats it is :D

 

Will work out far cheaper as a straight retrim is around £500 anyway.
