Or on purpose, like maybe a child.

Bit of exaggeration on the title for sure.

A good leather repair shop can take care of that easily.

I got an excellent touch up paint from eBay for my Oyster interior.

Not many people realise that leather is pretty much a ‘painted’ product,, the colour sits on top of the leather. A bit of care and you can do a DIY repair that will be invisible.

Alternatively this would be a simple repair for a trim shop.

Good luck!

Why do I keep reading this subject as if the OP is screaming it like a starlet from an old B&W film?

ar2020 · 06-21-2021, 10:33 AM

Ugh the dealership is offering $150 to fix it.

clone1008 · 06-21-2021, 10:51 AM

1. My interior is RUINED
2. My dealer wants $150 to fix my RUINED interior.

OMG $150!!! You're right the car is RUINED beyond repair for that kind of money. Take it straight to the salvage yard!!!

Fork it over.

Vitacura · 06-21-2021, 11:39 AM

So your two options are to keep $150 in your pocket but have to see the blemish every time you are in the car or pay the $150 and be happy that the interior is no longer ruined.

Seems like an easy decision to me.

6oclockshadow · 06-21-2021, 12:25 PM

OP a drama major?

ar2020 · 06-21-2021, 01:20 PM

Guys haha I can tell my posts are coming off as dramatic. I am pissed it probably got ruined by a girl I went out on 2 dates with. But I'm obviously getting it fixed. In fact lol my total is coming to $600 because I'm also having them put in the black grille

.

Benjamin_Nicholas · 06-21-2021, 06:27 PM

You let it happen.

Think of the $150 as a stupid tax.

Pay it. Learn a lesson. Move on.

ar2020 · 06-22-2021, 02:11 PM

Just picked her up. Can't even tell there use to be a tear. Perfect job. Do they have some of that cognac material so they can match it up perfectly?

utube leather/vinyl repair clips show how color matching is done.

My interior is RUINED!!! *EMOTIONAL* [not clickbait]

alpinewhite3 · 06-25-2021, 11:09 AM

I always find these threads amusing. It's a moderately priced entry level luxury car. I completely understand being OCD and keeping things meticulously clean, but things happen. Let it go, there are bigger issues out there..eventually everyone is going to get a scuff mark, or a dent or a scratch, etc. My wife accidentally spilled orange juice in my last 3 series. We cleaned it up and moved on.

alpinewhite3 · 06-25-2021, 11:19 AM

this is what i expected and it didnt disappoint.
