Mine is starting to wear very slightly on the drivers side. Anyone had theirs done ?

Alternatively, do BMW sell new alcantara covers to the seats ? Still available?

I having one made at the moment with the original material, if it works out it will be a 1/3 of the price from BMW.

Not really much to share at the moment. I ordered the material directly from Alcantara and had backing attached to make it the same as what is on the seats.

I provided the re-trimmers with an old cover I bought on here to use as a template.

I just need to take the seat into them so they can check the fitment of the new cover is perfect and then they will do the final top stitching.
