[alfa] (combining) upholstery kits & Spider seat foam

[alfacybersite <acs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

On the client's '60 Spider I restored I purchased new foam, but couldn't
get the upholstery which was in good shape, back on and attached
properly. Took it to an upholstery shop and they said had I brought the
seats to them, they could have made new covers and refoamed for what
they had to charge me compared to what I'd spent on the foam and my time
spent. Since the lower edges of the installed seat covers had been
trimmed, it made it extremely difficult to recover. The old foam was
dust.

Not always, but frequently it makes sense - and is often less expensive
in the long run - to send a project to those who do it on a daily basis
(professionals).
