...or the surrounding area.

The caramel heritage leather on my new purchase is in dire need of some TLC, are there any detailers in the area that could fully revamp the leather?

Thanks for that. Any idea roughly how much they'd charge?

I saw that thread when I was browsing, looks brilliant but I can't stomach giving the job the full attention to detail it deserves.

If you find out, I'd be interested. Keen to do the same with my e39 m5. I don't fancy ruining it by trying myself!

I phoned them today and the jist of it was they just re-trim the leather. I mentioned filling the cracks etc. but he seemed to say they can't/don't do that due to products being water based rather than oil based now (or vice versa) and it just peels- sounds like ste to me. I've emailed them pictures and a link to this thread-

That is exactly what I want, it's obviously do-able.
