Need a good upholster !!!!
 

I live in the greater New Orleans area and I need a good upholster. I brought my sunpad/hatch cover to a guy and he wasn't what I was expecting. I need to have my 2 bolsters and the wrap around back seat done but I can't seem to find anyone that specializes in marine applications. If anyone knows of a good place in the N.O. area please post so I can get my stuff taken care of. Thans all of you guys who have helped me through my first year of a sport I will never get tired of!!!! :D

The best I have found is
Juels Trim Co.
7220 St Claude Av
Arabi La 70032
5042793630
He has done alot of work for me. His shop is right in the curve where St Claude turns in to St Bernard Highway (in da Parish)
ask for Juels :drink:

there really is no one "good" here in new orleans , i haven't seen any of jules work though , i can tell you that upholstry by laura in kenner sucks ., norman motors in kenner will give you a half ass job too , myself , mine's either going where ex40 brought his when the time comes , or lipship -haven't decided. was going to go to ppi but they seem to turn away custom work , last time i checked dead presidents spend everywhere.. but there....

i don't mind driving for quality......

you could call around out at west end , maybe sintes can put you in a good direction or call us marine down by chef pass..

Hey ex40...How much did all of that work cost? I just need 2 drop out bolsters....Any idea on $$$?

Re: Need a good upholster !!!!
 

I've been to PPI a few times. I got them to make some bucket seats for me. When I picked them up, I asked how business was. He said they were so busy doing new stuff, the quit taking on redo work. That was a couple years ago, guess they are still busy. I don't blame them, if I were them, I rather do new too.

Thanks for all the advice guys !!! As soon as I get my Outlaw in presentable condition maybe we can meet up for some beers. The prop stop is calling!!!!! :evilb:
