^^ exactly. The entire seat needs to be retrimmed.

You deserve it for smoking/smoking in your car/letting other people smoke in your car.

LOL ..

if you can see the soft spongy material already, just cover it up with RED/Blue (depending on the colour of your seats) permanent marker.

Your fault for letting your gf poisoning herself, dump her and find a non-smoker.

This goes far beyond your ripped recaros

No not the entire seat.
Where you getting this information from?
I just actually had a quote done for my repairs to my SR4

cskfai - Where you located for one?
I went and saw the guys in morabbin who are an authorized dealer of Recaro products now i can tell you now material wise to just do the head piece (The centre and side bolsters) you'll be lookin at around $200 in material as the material is a complete joke of how much it's worth...
By the way, this is a good time to fix bolsters as you need your car to go to a trimmer and the boys at Recaro will recommend 'blackmans leather', i got my quote at him 2 replace 2 bolsters ($88 each) Retrim my head piece area and drivers side bolster. Total quote was good but if you wanna know more chuck me a PM.
Hope i helped mate

Is it just one little hole? Personally I'd consider hand-sewing it if I were you.


As for smoking...well dude I smoke and I love it. But not in my cars, period. If my GF lit up in my car I'd pretty much just saw "Don't smoke in my car" or "Don't ****ing smoke in my car or you can get out and walk" if she doesn't listen the first time.

Along with other lines I've had to go over with an ex and my current...

"Don't slam my ****ing door"
"Don't touch my ****ing windows with your fingers"

Because they didn't listen the first 1-2 times.


I'm not a misogynist or anything man seriously if you wanna wreck stuff do it to your own car. Gotta respect other people's things. You obey the rules in my car, not make them. And if you break it you pay to fix it. Srs.

It's not big but quite obvious. Every time I saw it, 3 words appear in my mind..."WTF!!" Anyway I will ask my girl to do it. If fail, she said she will pay for the fix lol

"Don't slam my ****ing door"

Last week she told me that don't let other ppl to smoke in the car, her friend's car got cigarette burn on the seat. And told me that she will be very careful. After a week, the same thing happened on me. They will just say "oh sorry I do not intend to do it, I'm just careless. hey just a small scratch.. don't be mean, man shouldn't be mean..." I heard this many times! They never understand.

Good job lol

She did say buy me a new one but I just think if it is repairable, it's not worth to get a new set. I would rather spend on other mods lol

thanks but I'm going to retrim it!
