    Looking for recomendations on a good shop in or around the Houston or surrounding areas. I have found two places in my area but cannot store my car indoors while they work on it. I would like to have it done before the Roundup. Any ideas?

    Fat Lucky's - Austin. Not exactly Houston, but worth the trip.

    I recommend Westside Upholstery (Houston), located on Brittmoore, near Beltway 8 and I-10 west. Here is a link

    They have a fairly nice sized shop, and they've been around for a very long time. I'm sure they can do you right, though you never know about schedules.

    I will probably use them for Venus upholstery work.

  6. Fat Lucky is a rock star. Those other guys are probably pretty good, too.

    David Devers upholstry shop in Waco would be worth the trip from Houston. He was taught by his dad who used to do all the show cars in the 50's and 60's. Did a great job on my coupe.

    That just depends on budget, when its needed to be done

    I've had work done at a couple here in Fort Worth , nothing fancy
    and I've been ok with work performed for $$ paid

    If you are just looking to get it done by the roundup just for the sake of geting it done by then go with whoever you find. If you whant some thing that is bad ass and just might take away form the outside of your car take it to Fat Luckys. You can beat him hands down and your so close to Austin.
