E55 leather

The leather on my Driver's seat side bolster has moved out of place and left a nasty crease since the first week of ownership, I keep pushing and pulling it back into place but after a week or so it goes right back making the crease bigger and longer! I purposely don't drag my a$$ across the bolster but it does not seem to matter. I've never had this issue with my other MB's, what's up, is it the movable dynamic/bolsters, the nubuck ???

I was refering to the Experimental Aircraft Association's B-17 "Aluminum Overcast" one of only a few still flying B-17's from WWII.

LOL I thought it was my post! The B-17 I flew in was part of the collings foundation.
