    Where do I buy LSB nappa leather and dye

    I just bought a new pair of Recaro Pole Position black leather seats for my 2003.5 LSB/LSB. I would like to purchase nappa LSB leather to do the Recaro center inserts to match the rest of the interior. Anyone know where I can buy?

    Also, my LSB front seats are a bit worn so I would like to dye them so they look good again.

      I believe leatherique had a program where you could send a small sample of leather in and they would custom mix you dye that was perfectly matched. You may want to contact them to see if that’s still an option. M539 Restoration also had a video of a seat repair / factory tour if you want to see more about the company. (Edit, this tour was of ColourLock, not leatherique)

        Just watched that episode of M539. He visited ColourLock. It was pretty interesting.

          Of course they offer LSB. Crazy they do not have a match for the gray nappa.

                Can you post a picture of these? I want to see the color match and texture if you don't mind.

                      Yeah, I got one of those. Hard to tell with such a small square. The texture and color seemed off so was wondering what it looked like with a whole seat…

                          I've used Colorbond LVP to take crappy tan interior to black; the had a ton of factory colors available. Not sure that they would have LSB as an exact match though
