Just fitted Sport leather interior to my 318is!

It is in top condition apart from a worn patch on the drivers seat bolster,upper part nearest the door).

Does anyone know if i can buy a direct replacement from anywhere,or better still anyone got one they want to be rid of?

Light Grey colour!

Help appreciated guys,want to make it mint

Thanks mate,ill try sending him a PM,see what he knows!

In the meantime ill keep looking.
Only got the interior this week,tiny bit of wear to drivers bolster otherwise mint,and at an unbelievable price too.

Also got a set of rear headrests coming for it in the correct colour to,so im itching to spend some money on the bolsters sooner rather than later!

I was looking for a lower passenger bolster for the m3 leather, and i cant find any either. Ebay used to have loads on there!

might be worth going to an upholsterer - they will grumble because they prefer full retrims/big jobs and don't like doing things that might not match when its finished, but they should be able to do it for £30 - £40.
