My driver's side bolter is not torn, but it does have areas that are starting to show decent wear.
I'd like to get it looking as good as I can, w/out actually replacing anythign.
I hae black leather seats - so that shouldn't be too hard to match color on.
i just don't know if there is a dye to use, or if I shoudl go to an upholstery shop and let them use some knid of leather "repair" kit. on my family car, an Acura MDX, we had a small rip occur in the vinyl part of the seat and under warranty they had it repaired. it looks really good, but up close you could see it was some kind of brush on material that bonded to the vinyl. (why a brand new car woudl rip in the spot it did was beyond me... but it's a lease so they can have it back when i'm through with it... that's another story)
i wonder if there is somethign i can buy and brush on that will cover up the worn spots. akin to how I shoe polish on my dresh shoes... there must be the equivalent for leather seats.
I also have read someone on here talked about switching seat backs. Is that possible on our cars? if so - that would be an option I'd consider. swap the backs of the driver and pass seats so that the outer bolters are essentially "brand new" and then I could dye the worn spots, and as they woudl now be on teh "inside" they wouldnt' get much wear.
any info on either of the above options woudl be appreciated!!!
