Caroline-NSX used black oven or appliance paint on mine and it looks fantastic since it does not attract attention like gloss or anything fancy. It was all chipped up before but he sanded it down and refurbished it to better than new.
Close your eyes now if you are sensitive to SACRILEGE.
Black Kiwi Leather Dye (available in most groceries) will do the job. No removal necessary. Apply a thin layer and you're done. Two layers a day apart if necessary.
It also works exceptionally well on the rear window trim and the front bumper spoiler, as well as, of course, any worn areas on the seats.
Flame away!
Yes. It does cover all the little grey and white lines, and even (like my 24-year-old DD) splits with white stuffing showing.Have you used this on the seat bolster?
If so, how were your results?
Thanks,
Matt

But be aware, it is dye, not conditioner, so it will not soften the leather; in fact it will make it stiffer.
If your seat/bolster is in good condition (lines but no cracks), use something like glycerine saddle soap to soften it, then apply the dye a few days later.
The dye should be applied at room temperature (70F) and takes about 8 hours to set.

all in all,a quick and easy solution.thanks, cmthomson.
Just clean it. I used Windex and paper towels. (I know, more HERESY.)I didn't touch anything else up.my rear window looks great,and the front spoiler is out of sight,out of mind with my slightly sore back...
if I do get inspired to touch up the spoiler,what if anything do you do to prep it?
