Probably the only real fix is to buy the replacement part for the top leather cover. that should be in the $400 or so range. I did some work with the cover recently, it's not that difficult to replace it. Dye lasts for a little while, fillers maybe a bit longer.
My opinion is that filler and dye is for when you're bringing the car to showroom condition for near term use. If you're looking for another 30K miles, you start fresh with a replacement piece and care for it properly from day 1.

Do you have the part numbers for replacement black leather covers?
I'll post a part number, but with you not having the year of your C63 available, and whether its a sedan or coupe, it won't do much. You also have to post where you are, as there were markets where there were fabric seats for C63 apparently..
so for instance for Pfl, there are many possible scenarios:
Designo Leather
Designo Leather two-color
700A fabric
730A Leather combination
Leather+ Napa+ semi aniline
So you have to really identify what you have from the card of the car.
The other things is that I can see the part number and the code of the color, but I'm not sure how to write the compound part number, what's the syntax. SO withh there be a space, or not between the two codes.
Here's an example:
PFL With black/antracite leather, back rest, driver's cover.
I believe for PFL sedan driver's seat, backrest, the above code should work.
In this case, you may want to get the guy at the parts counter confirm the code.
There is no black in the list, there's only Black/Antracit.
The weirdness is that for my car, in which the leather is the pale yellow, my vin number card says:
Upholstery: 205 Sahara Beige/Black AMG Pre .... What black? Maybe black refers to the color of the plastic seat backside? maybe the color of the plastic seat cladding?
Do this: In the vin card, what number option is your upholstery, then we can single it out, no matter how weird.
Meanwhile I will check if the part number above can pull a price from a vendor.
Weird..
I tried to post an update in a posting and ended up posting in a completely different forum, because my browser view seamlessly continued this thread with a "similar thread".
Anyway so
WOW
