I still have to re-finish the seats in the ti, but I'm waiting on more supplies...

Looks awesome! What did you use? Leatherique?

I bought some leatherique, but only the rejuvinator. The finishing product is;

I saw a thread on e46fanatics and I was impressed with the results. You can see how well it worked... One of the side bolsters was completely worn down to the suede, no finish left. Like this, but not actually worn through;

Needless to say, I'm thrilled with how they turned out...

Yeah, more details on this please. Technique, specific products used, etc.. this is awesome.

Holy snapple! That's amazing! This is going to be really useful now that I have leather seats.

looks good, the dove seats look so smooth

I have a lot more pics and I have started on doing a full write-up. Hopefully I'll have it up before the weekend is over...

Thanks for all the great feedback!

Looks fantastic, thanks for making a write-up. I need a set of vaders to recondition now...

They look incredible James! Very nicely done and absolutely worth the effort, keep up the good work.
