Default upholstery shop in Northern VA?
Looking for recommendations for an upholstery shop in Northern VA/metro DC. Passenger seat seams are separating. Anyone have any recommendations?

My dad had good results from Lims in Tysons. I think they do the local dealers' fixes too.

I've used Lims Uphostery in Tysons for nearly the same problem with outstanding results.

Lim's replaced the cracked plastic window in our '00 Boxster's convertible top. They did an outstanding job!
