I think there was a thread on installing leather armrest covers with foam padding a while back. The problem is that even with leather alone, the gap is pretty tight so the foam (which has to be sanded by the edges) would have to be very, very thin. I think plain leather of similar grain makes a big improvement over the plastic (and there is the added advantage that it does not scratch with watch bands etc., like the painted on finish on the original plastic). Apart from the springs, re-installation is a snap - the little rods go back in quite easily.
As I recall Pedro is selling leather kits on his site - not sure of the quality or grain match, but presumably someone can chime in.
