BradMosen 16 Report post Posted June 7, 2018 Has anyone got any tips on restoring E36 Half leather seats? The cloth has faded to blue and the leather has cracked like they usually do. Is there anyway I can make them look a bit nicer? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M3AN 4016 Report post Posted June 7, 2018 To be honest, just keep an eye out for a replacement set. You should be able to pick up nice ones for less than $100. Or keep an eye out for the motorsport ones I'm about to sell! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BradMosen 16 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 How much are you going to want to sell them for? And are they for a coupe? Or does it not matter? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M3AN 4016 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 (edited) Hi Brad, no price in mind yet. I only have the rear seats (coupe - yes it matters for the rear) which have been refinished with new motorsport material inserts and door cards to suit. To be honest I mentioned that a bit tongue in cheek - they're not going to match your front seats. It's practically impossible to "restore" the seats you have without getting them recovered which is expensive. However the do come up for sale reasonably frequently and that may be your best route.

BradMosen 16 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 Those look awesome! I've considered going for aftermarket seats so they could work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M3AN 4016 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 MIght have the front Recaros with matching inserts, e36 mounts and sliders to suit at some point in the near future. It's an abandoned project so will still require some work and the Recaros are in pieces at the mo. You can just see the passenger seat in that photo. Price would climb accordingly of course... although my priority is to declutter rather than profit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BradMosen 16 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 Have you got a matching passenger Recaro too? If so, I'd be super keen to get the lot man. Can you give me a ball park figure of what it would all cost so I can get some what of an idea? Let me know if you want to get rid of them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
