Default MK2 FRS - recovering scratched seat leather

I've scratched the arm rest leather pretty badly with my jeans !! Looks a mess and took it to auto trimmings in redcar but the leather they have isn't like for like.

Anybody know if someone or a firm can supply identical leather in strips or rolls ? Or anybody got any lying about that I could buy ? Ill pay a decent price !!

Cheers !

Do you mean the side bolster on the seat? If so it's not real leather, try getting a dye for it.

Would be worth asking the question on focusrsoc.com
They do suffer with wearing there, a lot were replaced under warranty.
