........ Uphostory for hood .........

Kumarasiri B.A.L

The below upholstry job for my CR27 was done for Rs 9000 about 6 months back by Mr Nimal who's workshop is just near the Pepiliyana "Yakada paalama".

Satisfactory work.

Im not sure if i can post the business location of a vendor on this forum machan.. but simply go to the "Yakada Paalama" :) at Papiliyana and ask for Nimal who does upholstry.

I am known as just "The Don". Master Don is a different user.

And Komi, it turns out I know this Nimal fellow. His workshop is adjacent to the garage I told you about. I speak to him all the time when I'm there but believe me the man is quire busy. There is no shortage of customers!

OOPs.. my bad "The Don" Sorry !!

Yes u need prior appoinment as he attends to one vehicle at a time and moves on to the next.. no multi tasking and shitty jobs from him in my experience.

I too can recommend Nimal... His work is pretty good and his prices are reasonable. Only problem is that he is very busy because he has a lot of customers. Milindu gets most of his work done there as well.

Yeah tell me about it. But I think if you a book a date with him you can usually get stuff done. I'm surprised he's not raking it in with the number of customers he's got. Still looks like a small timer and only have around 2 assistants.

Is this in front of the Play ground? In between Pepiliyana and Gamsaba Junction (Pepiliyana Road)? If so I live quite close to his place.

I believe he does that intentionally, he's a simple bloke really and quite happy to keep pottering along. He refuses to take on excess work because it compromises the quality of the work that he does. Quite admirable really.... His work is pretty good.183579_10150147878536060_4158471_n.jpg

This was the work he did on Devinda_zs ex Z.... Completely redid the seats, door panels and dash. As you can see, turned out rather well.

Was there a colour change involved or was it the same colour? just re upholstered? Does look pretty good. How did you get a good match of material?

Complete change of colour, basically reverted it to as close to stock as possible... It used to look like this

The above had been done by a previous owner

Nimal managed to track down the closest possible match to the original fabric using his usual sources.

I see. I have a similar problem except I want to slightly move away from the stock interior colour, which is pinkish with a grey back. I don't want anything outlandish, but to be understated but sporty. The car is black, the interior carpert and hoot lining is grey, the dashboard is a very darkish grey and so are the door panels apart from the same material as the seats used for a stripe in the door panels. Any ideas.....?

Using Nimal is fairly straight forward for me because that is genuinely my usual garage.

Since the car is black already why not go with black fabric? It should look rather nice...
