wear on bolsters
« on: 07 March 2008, 10:20 »
Hi guys,
Anyone else with the cloth seats notice that their bolsters on the drivers seat starting to look a bit tired/worn? Especially the bolster on the seat back, next to the door.
Mine's just a year old and only got 9000 miles. I wouldn't say its completely worn or knackered or anything, it just looks a bit tired and certainly if I was a fat fecker or didn't look after the car as well as I do, I'd imagine they'd look a lot worse... I would have expected the fabric to be more hard wearing than this!

my last one was looking tired after 12k - if you looked closely you could see that the part that is in contact with clothing etc as you get in and out was wearing.  I would love to see one at 50k!

The dealer told me he had replaced a cover on R32 with cloth trim after 20k as it had worn through.
