He originally tried another supplier but wasn't happy with the quality or texture. After switching to our suede, the contrast and finish spoke for themselves.

"It wasn’t as good in colour and texture compared to yours... I’ll be buying some again."

When Magic Meets Style

Rob ordered some black stretch suede but not for his car !

“I’ve got two friends who are huge Harry Potter fans. I bought them wands and made custom Ollivanders-style displays. I used your black stretch suede as the background—and wow, it turned out lush and well cool.”

The texture added that perfect touch of wizarding world luxury!

Nick owns a BMW 435i M Sport twin turbo. It’s the real deal !

He looked into having the interior re-trimmed professionally.

The quotes came back: Minimum £250.

So, he decided to give it a go himself. He started small — door handles, centre console. As his confidence grew, he moved on to the main job: re-trimming the entire dashboard.

No prior trimming experience. Just a bit of patience, the right material and a good spray adhesive. The end result? A clean, professional finish — and an interior that matches the look and feel of the car.

“I get a smile when I look and know I did that. I’m really pleased with it.”

Nick left us a brilliant Google review. He’s chuffed with how it turned out — not just the finish, but the fact that he did it himself.

That’s exactly what we like to see. With the right Auto Suede and a bit of time, you can give your car interior a proper refresh.

Nice one, Nick.

Star Lights

Moses carried out a star light and headlining re-trim. He used our black stretch suede for his headlining.

He gave us a little insight into the process.

“Hey it went really well. It’s good quality material.

I poke it with a fat needle and then pass the fibre optic strands through the headliner.

They are poked through and cut flush against the suede “

The luxury finish of suede works really well with star lights.
