Sorry to reactivate this thread, but in the mean time, did anybody found out what kind of coating is used on the CSL front and rear seats?
It looks like it is a very well guarded secret. But somewhere, somebody must know !! Hope somebody can help. JY |

Elms Bedford painted the backs of my seats when I had the subframe replaced at the end of last year. I feel they have done an excellent job and I'm really happy with the result, looks pretty oem to me. Not sure on the exact cost as I had quite a long list of bits done.

If we could just get the colour code, then maybe can get cans of the paint done to spray on ourselves

I know there are threads where others have tried to get the original paint. I believe the manufacturer is known, but not the color/texture full code.
Question to all interested - if you could get the original, would you really want to use it? I ask as to me it breaks down and marks easy. I have a 2011 1-series that has a similar texture matt black finish on the steering wheel, but seems much more resistant than the paint used on the CSL seats. I might try to see If I can find out what BMW use these days. To those with the Bradleys finish, how has it faired over time? |
