Just got my seats reconditioned by fibrenew, and was very happy with the results. Cost was $120 per seat. I only had the fronts done, as the back isn't showing any wear yet. On to the pics. I should of taken more before pics, but here's the drivers seat bolster before + after. I'll post back in a few months to let you know how the repair holds up.

That's impressive, would be interested to see how it holds up. That was a huge problem, IMO, with the older MDX's. The quality of the leather wasn't that great. They looked extremely worn after a short period of time.

Thx for posting pics.
Your leather was the base split leather kind ???

Yeah, the driver seat was extremely worn when I bought it. Overtime it's bothered me more and more, to the point I even started looking at newer MDX's. Acura wants almost $500 for the seat bottom leather, and then you still have to get it installed. I decided to try this first before going that route after seeing results posted in another forum. I was a little skeptical it would match perfectly halfway thru the repair as I watched the guys first attempt to mix the dye to match. In the end it matches perfectly, and you would never be able to tell any repair was done if I didn't tell you.

Did they replace the leather or just do some kind of repair/dye? The driver seat in my '04 has tears and creases. There is a Fibrenew a couple hours away. It doesn't bother me enough to pay $500+ but if they replace the leather for ~$200 or so I'm game!
