MATERIALS

We only use top-quality materials for our TR3 Trim Panel Kits at John Skinner Ltd:

> Automotive Grade Hardboard & Fibreboard: All our panels are cut from these materials, which are specifically imported for us from a renowned automotive and marine panel supplier.

> Premium Grade PVC Vinyls & Leathercloths: While other suppliers may use cheaper vinyls, we only use premium grade PVC vinyls and leathercloths. We trust only reputable and long established suppliers to provide materials with correct grain finish for the era.

> Wide Range of Leather Finishes: We offer three leather grain finishes – Grained, Smooth (Nappa), and Antiqued (Mottled Luxan) – with the widest range of colours available in the industry. At John Skinners, we source our leathers from highly respected tanneries located in Scotland and Italy. Additionally, we can also offer the official Connolly Vaumol leather range (POA), commonly used during the car production era. Furthermore, our in-house leather skiving machine enables us to reduce the thickness of suitable leather pieces for easier installation.

> Superior Carpet and Flooring Materials: We offer the most superior automotive wool carpeting available for this era of classic sports and saloon car production – our Automotive ‘Super’ Wool. We also stock a tufted Nylon Carpet for those working with a more restricted budget.

> OEM Spec Leathercloth for Pipings and Bindings: We use OEM spec Leathercloth (Vynide) as standard on all our seats and carpet kits. This helps us maintain the correct look and finish for this era of manufacture on all of our parts. At John Skinners, we prioritise the suitability of our materials over cost-cutting measures, which sets us apart from other suppliers.

ACCURATE PATTERNS

> Our patterns are designed and templated from original factory templates to ensure an accurate fit for your Triumph TR restoration project.

> Our continued use of unchanged patterns for over 40 years is a testament to their accuracy and suitability for fitment.

> All of our materials, from panel backing boards to leather used for seat covers, are cut to millimetre precision using our in-house digital CNC cutting machines for consistency.

> We pride ourselves on the unrivalled accuracy of our patterns and outstanding workmanship, which has earned us a world-renowned reputation in Triumph TR restoration circles.

Please note that the colour names refer to internal John Skinner Ltd names, not necessarily the names Triumph originally used for these colours.

Due to industry-wide inconsistencies in production and record-keeping, it is widely accepted that the interpretation of original shades varies depending on who you ask. As a result, John Skinner Ltd offers multiple “original” shade options for you to make your final choice from. Below is a list of these accepted “original” colour choices that John Skinners can offer for your Triumph restoration project.

Midnight Blue

Grey

Maroon

Matador Red

Biscuit Light Tan

Barley Beige

CUSTOM COLOURS/COMBINATIONS ALSO AVAILABLE

Note that we can also offer a variety of custom “non-original” shades if you prefer a more bespoke finish. For a full and complete list of options please view our Materials & Colours library.

SAMPLES/COLOUR CONFIRMATIONS

As part of the ordering process, we will arrange for samples to be sent for final confirmation – so browse and shop with complete peace of mind, knowing that we will guide you through step-by-step with all the information you require.

Please note that all materials are subject to colour shade differences between production batches. There may be subtle differences in colour shading between sample cuttings and final production material.

Due to the range of products we offer, and our worldwide customer base, we can only calculate an accurate shipping cost once Your Enquiry/Quote has been received by Jonathon. As there is no payment required at this stage – use our Quote Builder in full confidence, with zero commitment to purchase – and send us your Quotation request for your interior trim requirements; and we will get in touch directly with you with an updated Quote, which will include the shipment costs.

In the meantime, basic guideline shipping costs are outlined below.

(For all non-UK shipments – the final price per box depends on the size of the box – which is dictated by the items in your final selection)

UK: £10.50 – £30 per box

Europe & European Union: £20 – £150 per box

North America & Canada: £28.50 – £160 per box

Rest of World: £50.00 – £400 per box

Generally speaking, a complete car interior kit (Trim Panels, Carpets, Seat Covers, Boot/Trunk area, Soft Top Hoods etc) normally requires 2 x FULL Size Boxes, with some cars needing slightly less, and some slightly more.

Please note that these prices are exclusive of VAT (UK Customers ONLY) and any additional customs or handling charges that may be incurred during shipping. These prices are given as an approximation only.

🇪🇺 EU Shipments / Brexit 🇪🇺

As of January 2021, the UK is no longer part of the European Union (EU). As a result, several changes have been implemented which affects how EU based customers now purchase products from the UK.

It is not as problematic and complicated as people say. John Skinner Ltd sends hundreds of shipments to the EU; and rarely do we encounter any issues at all; and this is due to us working closely with our shipping agents to offer two choices that help to simplify the process for you.

You now have 2 Options you can choose from for shipping John Skinner products to the EU:

============

Option 1: Standard International Shipping

This is the ‘standard’ method of purchasing items from the UK, since the UK left the EU (‘Brexit’).

You will pay John Skinner Ltd for 1) the parts ordered, and 2) the shipping cost to ship from the UK to your address.

You will NOT be charged UK VAT (20% Tax). (Before Brexit, you would have been charged UK VAT @ 20%).

Once your parts ship, you will be contacted directly by our shipping agent (normally DHL), who will request payment from you for 1) Your Local Country Tax based on the value of the John Skinner Invoice, 2) a small admin fee (normally around €15). Once this is paid, your goods are released from customs and delivered to your address.

You will NOT be charged any Duties/Tariffs. All the parts we supply are made by John Skinner Ltd in the UK, and we provide all the correct paperwork & documentation and sign declarations to ensure that no Duties/Tariffs apply to our goods. (This is often the part that most people get confused by with Brexit – they assume that anything they buy from the UK incurs Duties/Tariff charges – our products are 0% Duty/Tariff rated).

Note that this shipping option is the default choice offered when Jonathon is raising your initial Quote; if you wish to discuss the second option (see below) – then just mention this to Jonathon once he has made direct contact with you about your enquiry.

============

Option 2: Prepaid Duties & Taxes *** VERY POPULAR OPTION ***

To simplify the purchasing process, you can choose our Prepaid Duties & Taxes option.

This process is becoming the most popular option for our EU customers as it makes everything very simple and straightforward, akin to how it was before the UK left the EU.

We will calculate & include all applicable import duties, taxes, and customs fees in your order total – and everything is paid up front to John Skinner Ltd.

Once the parts are ready and are shipped – you will NOT pay any additional costs, or have to do anything more – your order will be delivered to your address as normal. Our shipping agent (normally DHL) pays the Local Country Tax on behalf of John Skinner Ltd and they Invoice us for this later. This ensures that you won’t face any unexpected charges upon delivery, and your order will clear customs smoothly and quickly.

You can enjoy a more streamlined shopping experience with this option; like Brexit never even happened.

If you are interested in this option, please let Jonathon know once he has contacted you directly with your updated Quote via email; and he can update the Quote accordingly to reflect this choice.
