Leather touch up

The driver seat on my wifes car (cream) is wearing and the color is gone along the edge. Is there anyway
to put the color back in? Thx!

I've used leather doctor myself on an old Jag. It's brilliant for small patches IF you spend the time getting the colour match EXACTLY right. Read the instructions carefully, sometimes you add a wierd/ unexpected colour, to get the shade you want.

Alternatively. A good upholsterers will re-colour and make it look as new for about £100 (in my experience)

Lastly, and the most expensive - You could buy a brand new seat base cover from LR (about £350 from memory).
