The bolster on the drivers seat in my 2008 S8 is worn and I would like to get it repaired.
Has anyone had any leather repair done? It's the only place where I have any wear.

I had the same issue with my amaretto interior and used a local rep for this company:
Fibrenew Leather Repair, Plastic, Vinyl, Fabric Restoration

No complaints with the repair, or the process, whatsoever. The guy I used was mobile so he came to me, at my convenience. You would have to really squint in just the right kind of light to see a very very slight color difference. With yours being black, I don't think you would have that issue.

You're lucky your seats are black, grab a spray can of SEM Leather Paint. Look up a old thread I posted a while back, Where I re-colored (painted) my Seats. When I was done, my seats looked almost brand new. I would also recommend to use the SEM Leather Crack Filler as well.

Do you condition your seats? I use leather CPR per our leather chesterfield sofa mfg recommendation. It is a full aniline oil pull up leather, as i believe the audi leather is also full aniline.
I condition the couch every 3 months or so. makes it super soft and no cracking.
its about 15$ on amazonia, should bing the suppleness and help conceal the current damage on there..and make the leather last for years and years to come!

I found your post, you did an amazing job on your leather repair.

Thank you. The paint is really user friendly. If you have spray painted anything with a rattle can before, you can do this. I had to use a Hvlp gun because I had the paint matched. If the creases are not that broken in or deep you will be ok without the filler. Just make sure you mask alot or take out the seat for better results.
