Yeah its blackman & sons, he is one of the best in melb. But you will pay for it if you want full custom, mick blackman him self is a family friend and he is still to $$$$ for what I want done lol, so im going some where else.

but he is the best.

just a word of warning guys,I have a little to do with motor trimmers.If you are shopping around for price don't.There are so many different types of leather out there on the market,man made furniture leather and cheap sh*t.I have seen guys cars covered in leather and worn away within months.Ask what sort of leather they are using and how long it will last as a top quality cow hide can cost more than $300.00 a skin and you may need 6-10 cow hides to retim a car.Remember you get what you pay for.and if someone gives you a price thousands cheaper more then most likely the leather is of cheaper quailty.I recommend you ask them for a price on labour only and then ask for the different prices on skins.Cheers Nick

Is that Blackmans in Mornington??? If so I highly reccomend him also as he has done a few mates cars and does sh*t hot work. We also use him for some warranty stuff. I want to get my interior done by them in leather and have had my steering wheel done there also.
