Leather unless you're fat like me and it makes your back sweat through your shirt in the summer.

Leather, as long as the seats have bun warmers.

well if it comes down to me wanting to upgrade to leather it wont be hard to get some black leather seats from a parts bmw, i just hate looking at leather seats when they start to crack :( it makes me sad, deep in my guatemalan/japanese heart :bawl

oh yah i read somewhere u needed m-cloth door panels, if it helps i saw some at a salvage yard in leomister, ABC salvage i think, i was looking for interior light covers since my were all scratched and one was cracked and saw a m3 with the swade and m-cloth (looked sick, wanted the vader headrests but they wanted 250 for the pair, to much at the time), u should give em a call they might still have em

it was like 2 months ago so idk
