Oh no ****? Thats so awesome I always watch the guys at my shop doing leather work and I'm so envious! I wish I knew how to do this! Thats great that your able to do it yourself, is there alot involved in the process? You said 2 whole days, so I'm assuming its alot! What do you use exaclty? A sewing machine? What else? I'm so interested to learn about this maybe you could post some more information about the actual process? That'd be awesome! Thanks and great job.

Yeah, sorry, just been kind of busy. I'll post some more pictures this weekend when I have a bit more time. Have pics of a 95 S320 that had horrible wear and tear that I refurbished and also a 2001 BMW 530i that I did some work on..... basic wear and tear due to usage.Thanks
Again, I'll try to take some this weekend when I have a few spare moments.

Amazing work
So that is just reconditioned leather and redone in red? i am to understand that brand new matte looking leather is the original leather in there? I think I would pay if you could make my used leather look like that again. Is that possible? From the pictures it looks like the charcoal leather look shiny from use and the red leather looks brand new!
Can you send me clearer pictures of the steering wheel? Maybe some really close ups so i can see the difference in the original leather and the reconditioned red?
Simply amazing! Lucky I am in SoCal, hopefully you can redo my interior in the future.

I did a double take when I saw your pics: I saw a CLS550 with an interior much like yours, although the steering wheel & headrests weren't done I don't believe. Very nice looking in a black car like that.

Thank you very much.... it was either that or the silver.... decided to go with the red, plus now I have red leds for the dome lights, so it looks insane at night.....
