I sent an email, maybe they will send me some. I only have 15000 miles so it should look good. I'm a perfectionist so it bugs the shit out of me.

You and me both man. I've got 46K on the clock and my car's interior (aside from my fatass wearing the driver seat bottom) is like brand spanking new.

off topic but how long and how often do you spray the 100 shot?

have not really had a bottle filled in a while but when I'd say I've put over a 2 dozen bottles through the car since I've had it hooked up. I guess how "long" I've sprayed is, 1st through almost all of 4th. Highway rolls, track runs etc.,

What do yall like best on the black leather?

In regards to color I think that Leather is leather. A cleaner like the pinnacle/wolfgang/DP or other similar brands will all do the same thing whether the leather is black, grey, tan etc.,

My "parchment" drivers seat is turning black. I've only had the car for 45 days. I used Meguiars leathercare on it but I am not sure what to do about this color change. Can I use like Lexol leather cleaner?

I use this stuff. Seeing as our seats are Leather AND Vinyl it works great. I've never seen a product that works as good as this. I'm sure theres one out there but prob more expensive. The conditioner has a very high content of lanolin. The stuff smells like Leather in a bottle.

I use the cleaner once every two weeks. And I use the conditioner once a month. This is for the front seats. No one ever sits in the back seats so I do those every 2 or 3 months.


It's a great product indeed. We're actually stocking the cleaner/conditioner now from Pinnacle, which is safe to use on Vinyl and leather. Essentially, you can use leather cleaners on vinyl, but not the other way around. We have the Wolfgang Rubber & Vinyl protectant as well. You can take a look at our interior products here: http://www.lethalperformance.com/car-care-products-interior-car-care-c-11322_11340

Let me know if you guys have any questions.

just the middle part you sit on and the sides, you know its leather when it leaves a wrinkle look on it, everything else is vinyl, And from what i have been told even the whole back seat is vinyl. Im going to be redoing my front two seats all in leather in the upcoming months, cant wait to get rid of the shitty vinyl.

I have had good results using Meguiar's Gold Class leather cleaner (the cream, not not the spray bottle. I got the 401A interior so I wouldn't have to deal with those little freakin' holes anymore in the seats. I noticed that literally only the top is leather, and the sides are fabric. Less chance of cracking under my fat ass I guess. The leather that is there is definitely higher quality and thicker than the "leather" that was in my '08 Bullitt.

i had parch cloth seats, but not for long. the blue and black from my jeans kept them looking dirty, had to shampoo every other week. swapped them with black oem leather seat covers.

the center part and the frt of the wings or bolsters are leather. the headrests, sides and backs of the buckets and the entire rear seat is vinyl.

ive been using the maguires gold pro, spray bottle on mine for a couple years. if you dont sop it, the perf holes are not a problem. the leather has held up pretty well, but the foam in the bottom driv seat is going to get replaced soon as the wing has broke down.

That's strange that they pull the color out of clothes like that. I was hesitant to buy this car because of the light interior.. now I remember why.

what bothered me even worse than that was if i opened the door even one time while it was raining, the seats would get water spots that really looked bad....till i shampooed again....i hated those cloth seats with a passion
