Overall my seats are very nice in my 89. I would like to have the bolster fixed over the winter. Anyone know of a company that would fix the bolster or am I stuck with recovering the front seats all together?

Based on the photos, I'd just have them redone. The vertical surfaces like the side no longer match the horizontal surfaces in color. Sonderworks in NC or Classic9 Leather would be my persona go-to shops, or user olmann who is doing the fancy Paul Champagne stuff now.

Thanks. I must note the pictures make it look really faded which they are not near as bad as the LED lights make it look.

I would likely buy kits and do them myself. I did a few 944s and 914s with success. Any feedback on Lseat.com?

I just bought a LSEAT kit for my recaro LS seats. I won't be assembling them until the centers are finished up in about 2-3 weeks, but I can give you some feedback after that

I have had many a seat repaired. Luckily, I typically scavenge an original piece of leather from the back of a parts seat and then have a local upholstered replace the panel. I recently had Classic 9 replace a center cloth panel on original leather. Came out quite nicely.

Those seats could use a good simple green scrubbing, you would be shocked how nicely they will come up.
