Leather seats - crack and wrinkles

Well-Known Member
Hi everyone,
I sent my car for grooming (which includes leather treatment) every 3 mths, and in between that I do my own leather conditioning every 2-3 wks (I'm lazy...).

But my leather seats, where both me and sister sits, are starting to wrinkle. And in some places, it has small cracks.

Is there any good place to recommend to recover the leather to better conditions? And may I know roughly the damage?

Thanks for helping!

Ar, at least you are nicer than that iscoupe, got give some good suggestions.
What do they do for rewrap? make the leather tighter or they wrap a new layer around it? Paiseh, I'm not good in this....
I think getting new set frt seats expensive, so maybe rewrap cheaper...

It's either you change the whole seat leather........... OR......... if you are not veri meow or particular.... you could just ask them to change that part which is cracked, torn or stained.... (but inform u 1st, 2nd option is cheaper but dun expect it will looked the same.... as... u can't compare new leather with old ones, but after sometime it will blend in....)

Re: Leather seats - crack and wrinkles

Robot, expect to pay around 2k for it. AND, do they have the leather to match a bMW interior?

There was an advertisement on the forum once where they were selling interior and/or seat kits. That way you know it will match

If it were me, Id get some from Frey. At least we know everything at propel is $100 bucks

I tend to agree. I am not good in protecting things. Look at the stone chips on my bonnet and curb marks on all 4 rims :oops: Now leather seats also ugly. Haiz.

But it's a 5-yr old car, maybe I shouldn't be too ngeow....

shouldn't be a prob.

jackspeed does the re-uplostering for PML and many other distributors / dealers here, including the PIs.

in fact, they are the default re-upholsterers when the car comes in with fabric interiors.

workmanship is quite good too, from personal experience (previous car some years ago).

eh iscoupe, any connection to you? same name leh... robot, try to get discount.
