Hi,

New member here, dont currently have a pro touring car but do have multiple older projects including but not limited to a 1961 impala 2 door post, 52 dodge 5 window pickup, and a also a 300+ whp 1986 volkswagen GTI. I run JJ Custom Interior in Tacoma, WA and actually had a customer refer me to the site figured i should check it out see what kind of cool stuff is being built here. Alot of you guys might know me from other forums and facebook as a2coupe2a or ron@jjcustominterior

My shop specializes in Recaro restoration. I will post up my Recaro resource guides as well as plenty of diy guides and videos as i have time. Hopefully you guys will find the information useful. I know there isnt a ton of info available on older recaros and im always willing to help in any way i can be it telling you the model of seat you have or where to find parts for a discontinued seat.

Here is some of our work for those who are curious..

Gen 4 Recaro LS-C's





Gen 4 Recaro LS-B's / Rear seat / MK2 VW Jetta panels / Boots / Floor mats / Wheel insert






Recaro Sportster CS's / Mk5 VW door panel inserts / Boot / Armrest cover / Headliner / False floor



Recaro Pole Positions (the lower belt guides were not yet trimmed in pics)






Recaro LS-B's / Matching rear

[Kamikaze Sy]

Nice work!

I've been looking for someone to repair / rebuild a set of N's that I have and re-upholster my Recaro Office chair...Will have contact you to send up the seats and have you do an estimate.

Can you still get the old style "Spectrum" Cloth?

[Ron@JJCustomInterior]

the spectrum cloth has long been nla BUT i have found somebody with a yard and a half of original material we are going to use to reproduce it. That being said we dont plan on doing that until next year.

[Ron@JJCustomInterior]

If any of you guys ever have any upholstery or recaro related questions dont be afraid to shoot me an IM. Im always willing to help any way that i can.

[Ron@JJCustomInterior]

I still have a ton to add to the recaro resource guide but time is limited to work on it. I also have a few DIY instructional videos i am working on that i will post up when i get the time.

[ajg87]

Right on!

[armourmark]

This is awesome! What a super resource for those of us unfamiliar with recaro and upholstery in general. Thanks for posting all the info!!

[Ron@JJCustomInterior]

No problem, still have a ton to add.

Hopefully will also be an advertiser here shortly.

Welcome to the P-T boards from a fellow Car Lounge member. I PM'ed you some time ago about redoing my e21 Recaros for my Camaro. Still intend to do that, just not sure when!

[Ron@JJCustomInterior]

Hey nice to see im not the only one . I think we will be advertising on here before the end of the week.

Here are some of the most recent projects we have going, also should have a set of pole positions finished before the week is over.

[Jeff70]

Hey Ron is that houndstooth on that insert?

[Ron@JJCustomInterior]

Yes it is. We are doing the houndstooth insert with one of the older style recaro pins rather then embroidery. It should give the seat a more vintage look.

We will also be making an anti sub hole for the base so you will be able to run a harness with it.

[HotRod47]

Is that houndstooth readily available? I really like that!!
