T6LGA · 05-25-2020, 08:10 AM

Hi all
After a E92 330i and a F30 330d I am in an F80 M4 CP.
Feels like reached the goal at journeys end and mission accomplished.

T6LGA · 05-26-2020, 11:42 AM

Thank you all.

And before anyone even suggests, no I haven't even considered the M340i. 😎

DJVroede · 05-26-2020, 12:28 PM

Congrats! Enjoy your car

SCS55 · 05-26-2020, 01:01 PM

Good natural progression. Doesn't the e92 seem tiny now?

Kilabyte · 05-26-2020, 01:13 PM

Welcome!

Don't let your girlfriend drive it to get water and don't race any M340s

BzsBimmer · 05-26-2020, 01:41 PM

First question;
I have some wear on my Sakhir Orange driver seat bolster. It's not dirt.
1. Any product recommendation to restore and recolour the damaged area?
2. Any product recommendation to protect the leather?
Thank you

There’s a thread going on recently talking about repairing bolster leather. Have a search party and you should be able to find it.

Been looking for the last 3 hours but couldn't find it. Although I must admit, a part of it was spent laughing at the water container thread. :-)

My car has the same color combination as yours, gray exterior + orange interior. Also, some wear on the left side of my seat, the area is small but still bothers me.
1. I use the touch-up paint from colorndrive, code B39(check the stickers)
2. I used the chemical guys' leather cleaner+conditioner
Hope that helps!

Here is an update to this post.
I went with Colourlock, I must say, very impressed.

Usually getting in and out of the car incorrectly.

People tend to slide into the seat and rub the bolster vs sitting in the seat sideways while not touching or rubbing the bolsters and then twisting inside into the bolsters.

BzsBimmer · 07-04-2020, 12:35 PM

Also helps to code easy in/out which slides the seat back for exit/entry
