    Brilliant red...which is why I'm on the fence about it

      Don't go black, everyone does that. Keep it tan, and stop being a cheap bastard, and have the seats recovered..

      Your arse will thank you for it!

        That's kind of what I was thinking. I'll just hold out for nice, original seats. Hard to beat factory stitching and fitment. Nice, new foam would be neat, however.

          Yeah, after I got the Alpina seats back with new foam, it felt like I was sitting on a pillow. You forget how much two or three decades compresses the seat foam..

            I am leaning toward getting some replacement cloth from zoomzoom for my seats.. Seen a few positive reviews of their leather upholstery kits.. Hopefully the cloth is high quality

              I'm not sure what you are looking to have done, but I can tell you what Beaverton charged me to redo both the front and rear seats with leather and Alpina cloth.. just text me.

              You should try giving them a call for a quote, they do a lot of classic Bimmers in the area and the fit and finish on mine are perfect!

                Just going to swap out the cloth and cushions on my sport seats. Prefer DIY solutions

                  His kits are okay but never, ever buy one of his full seat sets
