Major Leather Problem ...please help...emergency
OK today my friend was in my car and he had matches in his hand ready to light his cigarrete ...and i was like yo man u cant smoke in here so since he lit the match already he decided to throw it out my sunroof... or we though it went out
after drving for a little we start to smeel somethign burning eys i turn around and its my leather...yes burning now i have pictures....and u can see that the fornt burn marks didnt melt the leather so is there like a touch up leathgr paint or something that i can use there???? now the other part is melted and i believe thati would need to get that fix
there is a good leather repair place by me and it is a small piece about 2 inches wide and 6 inches long...do u guys know wat a good price would be thanx alot

Dude, your friend is a dork!! Anyway, when I had a single piece of leather replaced in my '95 (side bolster of driver's seat), think it was about $50. I'm just guessing, but with the multiple pieces you're looking at, and where they are, you're probably in for $150 or $200...
That assumes they can replace just the panels that are damaged, which they should be able to do.

oh man! crap... what a *****...
Make him pay for a new seat cover, he should too... he's obliged, if he didn't even offer that, I question his friendship. Accidents happen, what can be done to fix it? Crap... not much. I mean u can get saddle soap scrub the hell out of it, but burning is a chemical reaction, that burned in color is not going anywhere.
Just replace it, sorry for your misfortune... what bullsh*t.

This is one reason I avoid associating with smokers. Other annoying things they may do include:
> Littering the streets by flicking butts out their car window instead of using the ashtray
> Spoiling the taste of my food if they've smoked in the same area
> Infecting my lungs with second-hand smoke, perhaps shortening my own life
> Leaving their clothes, hair and breath with that stale smell, as well as any room or auto they've been in
> Causing brush fires if their thrown butts were not fully extinguished
> Causing houses to burn down when they've fallen asleep while smoking
> Giving birth to low weight babies when the mother smoked during pregnancy
> Driving up health insurance costs, affecting my own premiums
> If not insured, putting an extra burden on public medical facilities, driving up my taxes
> Obligating me to attend unnecessary funerals

I would rather be in a hall full of smokers than pay for one more ****ing smoker or non-smoker who feels the need to breed and thus hike my health insurance premiums due to delivery and childrearing, spike my property taxes through the damn roof for schooling, etc. and so on and so on and so on.
Trust me, the economic impact of smokers on each individual is a moot point compared to other activities people just don't want to address.

Yeah, but smoking makes you look cool-and they sure as hell taste good with a cold beer.
