My 2800 cs has the classic blue velour upholstery. I am planning to change the front seats one but at worlduph.com it is NLA.
Any hint?

Hi;
I have the same material in my 2000cs and purchased iit at W&N a few years ago. Maxamillian nmay have it and try a BMW dealer.
Thank you Koopmann, I will try.
If NLA, anyone had ever tried to have this upholstery professionally colored? The texture is perfect, but the color is faded on the sides.

I have some blue velour that I removed from a set of seats I bought 'for parts'. Some of the fabric is still in good condition. IF you would like to see pix, send me a PM (conversation) and include your direct email address. I'll take the pix and send them to you.

I used rit dye on a sponge and came out perfect including color match. You have to wait a few weeks so the dye dries and does not stain. Maybe about $3 t0 $4. Cheap fix with excellant results. I would try to use the dye on a small piece of Dk Blue fabric( heavy weight ) and see how it matches. If it's too light hade a small amount of blk dye and if it's too dark,,which I'm sureit won't be ad a touch of a lighter Blue dye.
Good Luck.

I looked into this last summer and found that Jaymic in the UK can supply both of the cloth materials ; The velour and the kinda corduroy middle section. Good luck. Mike
PM received. Pix in a day or two.
