I quite like that look

TBH I think its the bolsters they need to be made of more hardwearing material ... my cars done just 19k (Nov '07) and they are marked. the seat facings are like new.

I comparison the GTI leather is perfect on the bolsters and slightly saggy on the drivers err bum area... that's 30k miles and 3years (today)

I just bought a set of cloth/leather buckets from Europe and had them shipped to me in the states. I have not installed them yet but am very happy with them. Initially i had planned to recover the cloth in leather but after seeing them in the flesh I fell in love and would not swap for full leather.

Question for those with these seats or anyone with buckets for that matter - what is the official color of the leather? I have a few scuffs and want to get some dye/polish would like to know if it is Black (code 7330) or Ebony (6556)?

I have a feeling it is Black 7330
