Dying Leather Seats

[hcbeck2689]

Those seats look killer! If the seats look as good as they do in the photos, the $1,000 you paid seems more than fair, especially considering all the good prep work he did plus a 2 year warranty.

Now I want cinnamon seats...but so much money...

I hate to call you out Curves, but you have used this gif in the past. Gif game is suffering lol


Edit: that was supposed to be s gif... turns out I don't know how to imbed them

Hot damn im jealous. That looks spectacular! Like i seriously regret getting rid of my m3 seats and instead just redying from black to NB or cinnamon.

Congratulations.

But swapping your seats will last longer than a dye job. Don't feel too bad. Dying has its downsides and upsides just like anything.

Yeah but this opens up the door to get cinnamon m3 fronts and then just dye the rears and doors if needed

What's the risk/downside here, dye fade over time?

[L0veZHP]

lol at the GIFs. I did research on the pros and cons of dying and the most valid information I came upon was there might be fading. Most cases I read, said that after 2 years there might be fading. But Zef will cover this if anything. I did stumble on a forum someone dyeing seats that had no fading and was like perfectly done.. lol I guess it all depends on prep and work mostly. I'll take more pictures once I get the car! I still haven't seen it in person.

BTW: I found Zeff on Instagram like I said before and just started talking to him through there. His IG is __zef__ . Just in case any of you want to do anything. super cool guy and deff an enthusiast!

I'll definitely also keep you guys posted on the leather and how long it lasts. for future reference.

Any Interior Trim Ideas? Zef said brushed aluminum would look cool. I think a glossy carbon fiber would look cool too. I'm open to ideas.

Nothing better than silver cube IMO

70% - 80% tints? Or a clear tint?

I like the black cubes with those seats. But if you want to change it up, silver cubes is the way to go.

I would at least put something on there. The uv will definitely cause some fading long term, especially in the back, and especially if they might be prone to fading already.

It's all personal preference but I would think it would be hard for you to go from 20% to 70%. I didn't even thing the 70% was dark enough for the windshield and had to go 50% the next time around, but that's just me. I think the air 80 is tinted a little blue, almost like the Mercedes look.
