I can not praise Paul's work highly enough. He managed to salvage the headlining of my Bentley continental GT at a reasonable price, instead of the extortionate price that Bentley wanted. So much so, that I've decided to hand on to it a little bit longer and have decided not to sell. If you want to see a traditional craftsman at work, then pay a visit to his workshop.
