Absolutely beautiful. And 3 pedals on the floor to boot. I KinDig it.
I'll buy lunch tomorrow if you can do the same thing to my 6MT. In all seriousness I did mine a while back, and was not impressed. Now that I realize I need to saturate the leather I'll do it properly next time. Thank you for the primer Jashan. |

I like my leather with the factory matte finish to it. I used this on many cars with amazing results.

My leather is so soft after letting this soak in for two days. I wish I could have let this stuff soak in for a week. I put it on every leather surface in the car.

You soak everything in the oil for as long as possible. The oil gets deap into the leather and pulls all of the crap out of the seat. Then you use the cleaner to clean it all off. Some people leave it on there interior for six months in the winter.

Yes I used the 3M as well for the flat portion of the trim however after over lapping it. I stitched the suede to tighten it around the trim. There are absolutely no wrinkles what so ever. I'm super happy with it. Just have to make sure I don't eat in my car and end up spilling anything lol

Yeah I can’t imagine Big Mac sauce or a dirty, creamy old Frappuccino would be very easy to remove from that suede.
Come to think about it, no fucking in there either! Keep it clean |

I believe the E9X have urethane coated leather seats, which might explain why it is less effective.
