Custom Car and Boat Upholstery in Hollywood, FL Through Our Partner Motenza Couture

The cars FSO Guard drives, escorts and guards around Miami spend part of their lives with their interiors out. A Rolls-Royce gets Miami-blue leather, a Lamborghini goes ivory and rose, a BMW X5 dashboard is retrimmed, a center-console boat gets new helm cushions before the season. Motenza Couture is the company in our group that does that work: an automotive and marine upholstery atelier at 5790 Rodman St, Office 5, Hollywood, FL 33023, open daily from 10:00 AM to 8:30 PM, working in Italian leather, Alcantara and marine-grade vinyl for owners in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Aventura and across South Florida. This page explains what they do, how a project starts and where the two companies meet.

An interior is the part of a car or a boat its owner actually touches. In Miami it is also the part that fails first: sun cracks leather, salt and humidity attack foam and stitching, and a headliner that sagged in July looks worse by October. That is why an automotive and marine upholstery atelier sits in the same business group as a security company. Motenza Couture rebuilds the interiors; FSO Guard protects the atelier that holds the cars, escorts the ones that arrive on a trailer and drives or guards the people who own them. Below is who they are, what they make and how the two companies fit together.

Who is Motenza Couture

Motenza Couture (also written Motenza Auto Couture) is a small automotive and marine upholstery atelier at 5790 Rodman St, Office 5, Hollywood, FL 33023, a few minutes from FSO Guard’s own office and from the Royal Motors Club showroom. It is open daily from 10:00 AM to 8:30 PM and serves owners across Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Aventura and the rest of South Florida from the one workshop; there is no second location.

The work is done by hand with professional upholstery equipment: patterning, cutting, sewing and fitting Italian leather, Alcantara and marine-grade vinyl. Every project is an individual decision about seam design, contrast, and which surface belongs where in the cabin. Completed interiors and work in progress are documented on the atelier’s Instagram, and the projects page separates finished cars from design studies so you always know which is which.

Automotive upholstery: from a torn seat to a full bespoke interior

Most car work at Motenza falls into three groups, and the same standard applies whether the car is a daily-driven Honda or a Rolls-Royce.

Repair and restoration

Leather seat repair for cracked, torn or faded bolsters with color and grain matching; seat foam and bolster rebuilds so the seat holds you again; headliner repair and replacement in OEM fabric, Alcantara or leather, including sunroof and panoramic roofs; door panels, dashboards and consoles retrimmed rather than glued back.

Custom interiors

Full custom car interiors and complete color changes, diamond and two-tone stitching, perforated inserts, matching shift boots and armrests, steering wheels wrapped in leather or Alcantara with perforated grips and a center stripe, and fiber-optic starlight headliners built into a new roof lining rather than poked through the old one.

The brands that come up most often are the ones the group already rents, sells and guards: Rolls-Royce, Lamborghini, Ferrari, Bentley, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Range Rover and Porsche, alongside family SUVs, vans and trucks. The atelier’s interior ideas gallery shows color and material directions before a single hide is cut.

Marine upholstery for Miami and Fort Lauderdale boats

Marine work: boat seats, helm bolsters, bow and salon cushions in UV-stable marine vinyl, fitted at the atelier or agreed on site at Miami and Fort Lauderdale marinas.

South Florida boats live outdoors in UV, salt and rain, which is why marine work is a separate craft with its own materials. Motenza rebuilds boat seats and cushions in marine-grade vinyl over closed-cell foam, makes helm seats and bolsters, patterns custom bow, cockpit and sun-pad cushions, repairs split seams and failed stitching, and fits yacht salon and cabin upholstery for owners who keep their vessels in Miami and Fort Lauderdale marinas. The marine upholstery section of their site lists each service and the materials they work with. If the pieces are removable they travel to the atelier; if not, the team discusses an inspection on board. Owners who already use FSO Guard for yacht security in Miami often meet Motenza this way: the same dock, the same vessel, a different trade.

How a project starts

Every project starts with photographs and a conversation: components, material, color, stitch pattern, then a written component list rather than a single headline price.
  1. Send photographs. Overview shots of the cabin or cockpit, close-ups of the damage or the panels you want changed, the make, model and year of the car or the type and location of the boat, your preferred color and anything you want to keep. Motenza asks for this before you bring anything in, so the conversation begins with your actual project.
  2. Get a component list. The reply identifies the pieces involved, the material and finish, and what the estimate covers. The team explains that a large flat cushion and a sculpted dashboard can need very different work despite a similar surface area, and that two proposals should only be compared when they cover the same components and the same finish. Read their note on how pricing works before comparing quotes.
  3. Choose materials in person or remotely. Leather, Alcantara or marine vinyl, color, stitch pattern, piping and any embroidery are confirmed against physical samples, not screen colors.
  4. Inspection and confirmation. The final scope may need the car or the cushions in the atelier so the foam, frames and clips underneath can be checked; changes found there are agreed in writing before work continues.
  5. Fitting and handover. Pieces are fitted at the workshop and the car or the cushions are collected by appointment. For high-value cars, FSO Guard can drive the vehicle between the owner’s residence and the atelier or escort the trailer that carries it.

Where the atelier and FSO Guard meet

The overlap is practical rather than promotional: the same client, and often the same vehicle, passes through both companies.

  • The atelier itself. A workshop that holds two or three exotic cars with their seats out is a target. FSO Guard provides overnight patrol, camera monitoring and key control in Hollywood, the same service we offer for car dealership security in Miami.
  • Getting the car there and back. Owners who would rather not drive a Ferrari to a workshop and leave it can book chauffeured transportation with a trained protective driver, or have an FSO Guard VIP security detail meet the enclosed transporter at both ends.
  • Work on the water. When a yacht’s salon is being fitted in a public marina, an officer at the dock keeps tools, materials and the open vessel secure; see yacht security and our Fort Lauderdale security services.
  • The owners. Executives and families who put a bespoke interior into a conspicuous car sometimes add executive protection for specific trips, events or airport arrivals.
  • The rest of the group. Clients who rent from the group’s luxury and exotic car rental fleet, buy from Royal Motors Club or fund a business through Motenza Capital meet Motenza Couture through the same people. Both companies are based in Hollywood, FL, inside the area our Hollywood security services cover daily.

Neither company passes your information to the other without your consent. If you ask, we introduce you by name and the decision to follow up is yours.

What Motenza Couture is not

It is not a high-volume trim shop with a price board on the wall; work is by appointment and every quote is written for the specific car or boat. It is not a detailing or upholstery cleaning service, although the group’s detailing team can be introduced. It does not advertise mobile repair or standard marina call-outs; on-site work is agreed case by case. Nothing on this page is a quote, a booking or a guarantee of a particular result: scope, materials, timing and price are set by Motenza Couture in writing after photographs and, where needed, an inspection. FSO Guard does not perform or quote upholstery work and never collects your vehicle documents; those conversations go to Motenza directly.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Motenza Couture part of FSO Guard?

Motenza Couture is a separate company with its own atelier, team and contracts at 5790 Rodman St, Office 5, Hollywood, FL 33023. What connects it to FSO Guard is the same South Florida business group, the same city and a shared client base: people who own, drive and protect high-value cars and boats. Upholstery quotes, materials and scheduling are handled by Motenza directly at +1 786 859 7876 or info@motenzacouture.com; FSO Guard handles only the security around the work.

What kind of upholstery work does Motenza Couture do?

Automotive: full custom interiors and interior color changes, leather seat repair and reupholstery, seat foam and bolster rebuilds, headliner repair and replacement including fiber-optic starlight ceilings, dashboards, door panels and consoles, steering-wheel retrims in leather or Alcantara, custom stitching and embroidery. Marine: boat seat reupholstery in marine-grade vinyl, helm seats and bolsters, custom bow and cockpit cushions, boat upholstery repair and yacht salon and cabin interiors. Recent projects include a Rolls-Royce in Miami-blue leather, a Lamborghini Huracan in ivory and rose, a BMW X5 dashboard retrim and a Mercedes Metris passenger interior.

How does a quote work, and why does Motenza ask for photographs first?

Motenza quotes by component, not by a single headline number. The team asks for the make, model and year of the car or the type of vessel, overview and close-up photographs, the preferred color and the parts you want to keep. Price then depends on how many components are involved, how hard they are to remove, the geometry of each panel, the condition of the foam and frames underneath, the leather or alternative material chosen, color availability, and any piping, embroidery or stitch pattern. The written estimate lists the agreed components and finish; an inspection and material confirmation may still adjust it. Sending photographs is not a booking and does not commit you to anything.

Do they work on boats and yachts at the marina, or only in the atelier?

Removable pieces such as cushions, helm seats and bolsters usually travel to the Hollywood atelier, which is the most precise way to pattern and sew them. For fixed salon and cabin upholstery on a yacht in Miami or Fort Lauderdale, describe the seating area and say whether the pieces come off; the team will tell you whether the next step is material selection, an on-site inspection or a detailed component list. On-site attendance is agreed case by case rather than advertised as a standard service.

What does FSO Guard do for Motenza Couture and its clients?

FSO Guard does not stitch, trim or quote upholstery. We provide the security around it: patrol and access control for an atelier that regularly holds several six-figure cars overnight, a protected transfer when a client's Rolls-Royce or Ferrari is driven between home and the workshop, a security presence at the dock when a yacht's interior is being fitted in a public marina, and protective drivers or bodyguards for the owners themselves. Two separate contracts, two companies, one group that already knows the car and the client.
