Champagne help needed

The Z I have bought but not picked up yet comes with the individual champagne nappa leather but has wear to the bolsters and because it's a light colour it looks quite a bit worse than on black leather so I want to fix it...

Contacted gaptone about their liquid leather as wanted to get it ordered so I can get on with the repair as soon as I pick up the car, and gave them my code from VIN decoder but they didn't have it on the system, they did come up with 2 alternatives

BMW Champagne 2002 ZIXX 530I
BMW Champagne Merino Nappa E63

Neither is the exact one, but will either match?

Anyone know?

According to VIN decoder my.new Z has

INDIVIDUAL TEILLEDER WN/CHAMPAGNER (LPCM)

Cheers
 
I saw the title of this thread and thought "this is finally a thread on this forum I can tangibly add to", but then read and realised it was about the leather :lol:
 
:rofl:

Didn't get that title quite right did I...

Found this stuff from a different supplier who has the walknappa champagne colour and it happens to be about half the price of the equivalent gaptone kit so ordering and will give it a go as soon as I pick up the car http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261198482568
 
I can highly recommend Nyetimber - fabulous UK-based vineyards, and a rising star in the 'sparkling wine' sector currently :)

Gone off champagne except if for a gift but usually for a party lots of prosecco which I think most people actually prefer and the cost is about £7 for a good one :thumbsup:
 
Anyway, back to leather...

I used these people who supplied a perfect match for my Coupe's Champagne Nappa
