Nick Franks had his interior fully restored ... looked just like the
factory work ... diagonal stitching with the padding.  He had the work
done at some place down here in the South Bay (San Jose) ... I asked him
the name but never got it ... of course he has now sold his car and
become a vagabond :-) ... he did say that they were just an upholstery
shop ... it wasn't that they specialized in Audis.  He told me how much
the work cost ... and it wasn't as expensive as I thought it would have
been.

So ... ask around to find the names of a couple reputable upholsterers
in your area and have them quote the job.  You might want to post to the
ba-group to see if there are any local recommendations ...
