wow those are some f*cked up CTR seats..people slide in and out of their seats which causes rubbing which produces friction which generates wear and tear.

solution: pick your a$$ up out of the seat

but that's just my opinion....I could be wrong

Frequent cleaning of the seats will help but the main thing is NOT TO WEAR JEANS in the seat, wear sweats(something softer then the seat not harder )

OMG those are 01 seats??? How many miles do you have on them!!!

I've got 36k and my red seats are still perfect!

Do your friends run every time you want to borrow a car?

Doh.. Just noticed the RHD, so no doubt the car is older than a year...

the seats should come with a disclaimer..**all passengers must all wear cotton or vinyl pants.. and utilize the oh sh*t bar when getting in and out of the seats to minimize seat cushion smashing/wrinkling at side supports.. **

that's just dirt buildup.. it will also build up on the part where ur seatbelt touches the seat.. suede cleaner will clean that up in no time.. just be sure to test it on a non-visible portion of the seat to make sure it doesnt bleach/stain the material.

the cars they get are not in the best condition because people in Japan don't send us their perfect cars. They probably say, this ctr is junk, let's send it to America.

soap and water took it right out for me. there was that one thread about how to clean the "alcantra" they simply said on the website to use soap and water. worked great for me i just used some dish washing soap.

Carpet cleaner works mighty well also. Make sure to get the stuff with TeflonŽ in it. The seats will not only look nicer, but last longer because the TeflonŽ prevents buildup.

Honestly, bud, the only way to keep a car looking good is not to use it.
