Morning All..

So we have finally got around to becomming a trader on this site..About time too as you all know we are pretty well known for doing the Supras..

You will notice the name change at the top. Yep wwe used to be Gibson and Boyne but we decided that the way forward was without him so now its just Vinny and the Welshy and we wouldnt have it any other way..

We are in the process of having everything changed over to Gibson Trimming but in the meantime you can still view my work at www.gibsonandboyne.com

Contact Details are :

We run the business from a workshop at the back of our home.
So turn into Peverells Wood and you will see the lane that runs
down the back of our house which is where the workshop is..

For those of you who dont know us yet we are Bespoke leather Specialists.
We DO NOT use any form of kit when re trimming your car. Everything is cut to fit the exact line of your car.
We only use the finest nappa leather inported from Germany and all other materials we use such as Alcantara are top spec.
Lots of the work is hand stitched and the attention to detail is second to none.
We can logo and embroider, do repairs, re pad your seats, carpet etc etc..
We can do installs too..

Steering Wheels are another speciality..All hand stitched and cut to fit..

Please bare with my website as im constantly updating it with pics..And have a few hundred more to add when I have a chance.. Speaking of which if we have done any work for you and you have any pics you would like displayed on my site then do send them to me and i'll be happy to post them..

We are working on a Skyline at the moment if anyone is over my way and fancies a nose and our next Supra is booked in on the 11th Feb..

We are also on the cover of this months Redline..

We offer top quality work with value for money and have a real love of what we do..So if you're in the area pop round for a cuppa, we'd be happy to see you (especially if you are Welsh..lol)
You wont find better quality trimming anywhere else in the country especially when it comes to Supras..You may find cheaper but it won't be better..

I am gonna be posting details of a group buy shortly and we are also gonna do a special deal for the first person to book in a full re trim..

So thanks again everyone for letting us trade..We are real happy to be here..

Do you take on smaller jobs, such as roof linings and sun-visors at all?

Yep..roof linings, Sun visors, Gaitors ,Matts , Repairs..etc ..You name it we can do it.. We've even done dining room chairs,curtains..you name it..lol

We have also got lots of spare supra seats so if anyone wants their seats done we can give you replacemrnt seats while we do yours so you dont have to be without your car..

We might be..you never know....

We normally do a cheaper price for Supra Owners anyway but in this instance we will look at doing it cheaper again..

Quite a tasty answer there, FF:) If I get the chance then I may even pop down for a cuppa today as you're only 20 miles away

Here's one I've often wondered about - during the retrim process could you modify the standard seats so that they have more side support? Kind of like comfy bucket seats but not so extreme :)

And can you upgrade the heaters in UK seats so they get warmer?

Modifying standard seats is again something we are known for on the scene.
When re trimming other cars we very rarely keep the seats as standard.
You should see the seats in my 5GTT..They mould around my whole body..lol

If you want more support etc its no problem. You just show us the areas and we will add or re foam etc..
To be honest Vinny normally asks you when you come in if you are happy with the seats as they are as he can normally see if they need adjusting etc..

We've just modified a top spec Recaro converting it into a seat for a wheelchair! Again adding more support and strength where needed..

Just for anybody that doesn't know of G&B (now G) !

They do really nice stuff...

We had our last one done and will be taking the next one down as soon as we have a few quid in the bank.

Pity I recently bought a set of front seats so I could swap them whilst they did the re-trim - didn't know they had them there... :(

Welcome to the forum....

Welcome!

Could I have a rough price on both front seats re-trimmed in leather?

How does delivery work? do you send the seats then the customer sends their seats back to you?
:)

There are some brilliant looking re-trimms on your web-site!!

'bout time!! :D
If nothing else, FFi is fit so you can visit for some eye candy.

Vinnie is very hot too so if that floats your boat then you can see him instead (he looks just like me - hence being hot!)

I do have to say that they have done a top jon on my seats, although I've not offocially released any pics yet they are awesome. Every time I go to the workshop there are cars around with amazing interiors- the max power car was there last time and W-O-W.

Glad to see you back guys!

All,
This is Lewis :http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/member.php?u=1719

Ffi has had another rabbit induced accident (the furry kind, not the rubber kind - as far as I know anyway).

She has asked me to log in and ask that rather than PM, you email her as emails are piped from the server to her blackberry but pm's are not.

email: info [AT] gibsontrimming.com

Many thanks
