Tallis did it. Looked great.
Theres a guy on e36coupe who did his grey leathers Red, looks ok. Bit vibrant/not OEM though.
Cant remember the guy who did his seats on cutters, possibly Jamie123 or someone with a similar avatar. Estoril coupe

Jambo almost talked me into one of these before i bought the 330ci individual. An Estoril blue M3 was always the car I wanted in the early 2000`s but I was never going to be able to afford it. They look far too dated for me to go for one now, hence going for an E46 albeit not an ///M Car.
Be good to hear a little write up on comparing the driving experience with your E46 once you have had it a while longer?

my leather reapir guy did the whole front seats, rear bench and some blow ins on all four door cards for £250
that was on my m3 and it was perfect the whole time i owned it
it had wear on the front seats, no rips and the rears had cracked, definatly get a pro to do it

You need to get those vaders! I dont see why people dont like them, i had some black ones in a techno convertible and they looked so much nicer than anything else.
So comfy aswell.

I love them. But too round for a vert. Looks "odd" with the roof down. Still horses for courses and all that.
I have seen a mint Estoril/dive Smg with 80k on the clock. If I could have that with E46 coupe seats Retrimmer in dove grey with a tin top I'd be a happy man tbh

Just remembered that yours is a cab aswell lol so you would need to get rear cards and rear seat, it's hard enough finding a black bench let alone a red one
I would find a pair of clean front vaders to match your seats
Thanks for the link, il more than likely keep my black ones but iv always wanted a red interior, maybe a bit marmite though...

The seats are totally different, i was going to test fit one into my coupe a bit ago but the shape is way out, the cab bench is also alot better as the seats are sunk down unlike the flat coupe bench.
I have a black coupe, not an M3 sadly but looks as good as

Have you seen that e46 full retrim on e36coupe? Think the thread is a few down from your thread.
Was unsure about your choice of seats but now i understand and it looks amazing! Although that would of been an awful lot of work to do.

The fronts arent much work just a bit snug. The rears are fucking ridiculas amount of work. Not sure why he bothered tbh!
Looks good though
