I'm not so sure that I would want the seat backs repainted in the same non serviceable coating, seems like a lot of expense with little to show for it apart from being back at the beginning in fear of scatching/touching it.
Not BM's finest choice of finishes IMO as it renders the rear seats almost unusable. :whistle:

Only if your scared of scratching them

Chuck four wheels on the back seats with the whole boot for tools & luggage on a Euro trip and don't worry about it :)

Thanks for the feed back. It seems that this original paint specification is a bit like the holy grail, even though it is not up to the job !!

Does this "Bradleys Liquid Plastic Soft Paint Liquid Montana black" match the original color?
Is it more durable?

I have heard the the BMW dealers have got access to the original paint, but I am not sure if I can thrust this info. Did anybody got it done at the dealer already? MAybe they use Bradleys as well !

I have seen that Bradleys can match colors, so I suppose that the color mix is done bespoke depending on the application.
I have sent them a mail to ask if they have a readily available matching color matched Liquid Plastic Paint for the CSL. Will keep you posted.

The original supplier is not Bradleys, and since Elms Bedford use Bradleys, i think it's suffice to say they do not know or can not get the original.
There is a thread in the members section with the original paint supplier name listed. I just wont repeat it here, as I guess people have put it in the members section for a reason.

If you are based in Germany, your local German dealer may have a better chance as the supplying company is German. Like I was saying in an earlier post though, would you really want to waste money on the original rubbish anyway?. Would be a laugh to call them though and ask if they have come up with anything better....

I have asked at dealers before, a paint comes up in their system, but was for something else.

This is Bradleys.

I'd like to get my seat backs done, other than going to Elms Bedford per earlier post, anywhere else recommended in the South East?
