hi guys,

I have a M-Sport so i have the sports seats with the large side bolsters and i have noticed that the side of bolster where the piping runs down the seat is getting badly scuffed from me getting in and out of the car. The leather in this area is getting dicoloured and it feels thinner than the reat of the seat.

Is there a particular product i can use to bring the leather back to it former glory and any kind of protect measures i can take other than getting a smaller arse?

The leather in this area is getting discolored and it feels thinner than the rear of the seat.
