I purchased a 2018 ecoboost with the leather option. I have found that most of this actually isn't really leather.

Who has the best product to restore the black color on both the vinyl and leather areas? I am hoping for something that may have some dye in it as I have tried the readily available store-bought conditioners like Mother's VLR and it has not worked as planned.

Thank you in advance if you have already done this and can share your favorite product!

Best product for leather restoration. I used the product in the past for a prior BMW and if you follow the directions exactly, you'll be able to get the leather surface back to excellent condition.

There are other products online, but there's no comparison to the above product for repairing damaged leather surfaces and/or dyes used.

As far as trying to get worn or sagging leather back into shape, check this thread I had posted in the DIY section a while back; it has tons of great info and methods that do work:

Give carpro perl with 1:5 dilution ratio before your go the dye route. As far as a cleaner as a step 1, I recommend CG Inner Clean APC.​
