How are your seats side bolsters holding up? I noticed on the seat bottom bolster in the driver side, the edge of the seam the dye is peeling

Looks like normal wear & tear, from egress into and out of the car.

Same wear pattern on my drivers seat along with some wear on the outside of the side bolster.

My local P dealer had a guy come in and re-dye the bolsters on both of my front seats, top and bottom. Cost $200 total and came with a warranty.

what color are y'all seats? are you guys thinking in the future have that part of the seat re-dye?
or is it a good idea to do it now when the Bolster is not in a very bad shape?

how does one protect the leather from the result above? What product should we buy?

Where's the post describing how to get in/out of the car??

There is a proper procedure. This will reduce the chances for excessive bolster wear

I don't see anything wrong with your bolster

Fall in through the sunroof. (Although I am sure someone will provide a pic of sunroof seal wear...... )

Or go in through the windows General Lee style. This may cause the interior door panel to wear and ultimately detach, but your seat bolsters should be ok.

Gym membership.

Low to mid (50-75% body weight) weight squats. 10-15 reps. 4 sets. Stretch in between. 1 or 2 x's/week.

Plop your a$$ in first, bypassing the bolster section. Sliding is for baseball��

Can't believe Porsche uses some pathetic leather. I would be happy to take vinyl over leather. 2 yrs and the side looks like a 20 yr old leather seat. My 8yr old BMW leather seat looks brand new which I have always taken it for granted.

I am using this so it doesn't start falling apart (this cover is slightly smaller than the seat, but works fine)
