You might want to get another quote...I have had two seats done in the
$225-250 price range. I priced the repro seat covers and they were in the
$150-180 range and they didn't come with the burlap, cotton or foam. So I
let the pros do mine. I sand blasted and painted the frame & springs and
made repairs as needed. They look and feel like new!
