The driver's left bolster is almost like new - there are a few more "lines" due to ingress/egress, but the leahter is in perfect condition. I use Lexol once a month to prevent future problems. My car was delivered in Munich with "sand" mats which didn't match anything. At my insistence they swapped the sand for black ones which we used for the month we were in Europe. When the car was redelivered in SoCal the correct caramel mats were in the trunk, along with the black mats from Europe. The caramel mats look much nicer than the black, but are tough to keep clean.
