Leather seats and smoothed bumpers

Post by Turb0 »

Hi All,
Just wondering if the 406 coupe leather interior is a direct fit into the mk2 406 saloon? Has anyone done this?

Also, has anyone ever gone about smoothing the bump strips off the bumpers? I got a spare front and was contemplating giving it a go...

I was going to take the rub strips off then fibreglass over the gap :supafrisk:

Is there any leather seats that do fit in the normal 406?

yes you can get leather seats from another D9. and retro fit the electrics (its easy) if the car doesnt allready have electric seats
all leather seats are electric.

you can get them in black or cream.

also leathers from a D8 will for a D9 but the rear back support section needs to be modified . the metal frames are different but the leather/cloth bit is the same and can be transfered
