The new owner, Stefano, wanted a 1-step correction and attention to the Recaro leather seats. I found him on one of the local forums. He wanted to spruce up his newest Audi upgrade. The B7 S4, black on black, 6MT, STaSIS tuned was hands down a beauty to work on. Moving the S4 in and out of my garage and listening to the V8 growl was music to my ears.

The pics are sequential. I wanted to thoroughly document this detail but time was limited so I didn`t get all the pictures I wanted.

Nice work. What do you think of the D180? I just tried it out, and while I like the darkening effect, it seems to have too much shine for me.

It worked well but I have nothing else to compare it to. I also noticed the shine and went over all the leather with a clean microfiber towel to reduce it.
