Default Worn Cloth Seat Bolster-Look Bad

I know that others are having the same problem, but my '06 Z is showing worn fabric on the driver's seat bolsters. (Naturally, I am out of warranty.)

My car is in perfect shape except for this item, and it is driving me nuts.

How can I dye or treat the fabric so that it looks better than it is now...has anyone out there done something about this that worked.

Yes, I looked on the forum for some info, but could not find anything about it.

Thanks for any help that you can give.

there is no solution once the fabric is worn theres no bringing it back. You have 2 options 1. get them redone which will be costly. Buy aftermarket seats which is your best option yes costly but very effective and better than stock. No relpicas buy a quality brand Sparco,Recaro,Bride and Corbeau.

Worn as in fading or worn as in tearing and soft. If its fading, i recommend http://www.fabricspraypaint.com/

How mu h is it with getting the fabric put back Whe. Compared to an aftermarket seat? Wondering since I'd like to keep my side airbags.

Thanks for the info.

Will look them up...if it remains permanent, and doesn't rub off...it is a lot better than I have now.

Thanks so much
