Default Perf. Leather Seats look weird -> 03/04 Accord V6 MT Owners Feedback needed!

Pictures of my 03 Accord V6 Coupe (MT)

Can you guys take a quick look and see if my seats look weird to you? The leather is really bunched up at the seams and it doesn't look very 'tight-fitted' like the way they are in the TSX. Do your seats look like this too?

I bought the car with 200 miles on it, being the only 03 MT couple around, and it looked like that to begin with, but having never owned a car with Leather interior, I wasn't too sure what it's suppose to look like...

I was checking out my friend's TSX (about the same age) and his leather looks very tight fit still...

What's up with my seats??

It looks like normal wear and tear for a car that's around 5 or 6 years old...YOUR car shouldn't look like that in my opinion. :eh: You might want to look into that bud...

Those seats look perfect to me, only aftermarket leather seats have tight inserts OE tend to look like that from time to time.

I'd say great catch on getting a MT V6.

looks like that cow had stretch marks.


If you didnt get it from a dealership i dunno what you should do, but if you did get it from one, take it back and look in the other new accords and compare.

i had a hunch that it might've been a bit worn, being that it had 200+ miles on it. I bought it from a honda dealership 'new' but since it was the last 03 around the SW texas area, I had to compromise (thus taking a 'new' car with some miles on it already). Though I did get it for a base price of roughly 23,500 with 2.9% financing, so there had to have been some give on my part.

It does have the fulll warranty on it though, so I wanted to get your input on it first before taking it back to the dealership. Maybe I can get some new seats!

Anyway, if any other of you folks out there have a 03-04 6speed coupe, please check in and let me know if that looks similar to your seats...thanks!

It might be worth taking it back to them and seeing if you COULD get new seats. It wouldn't hurt anything! Let us know how it all pans out!

I'm telling you those seats are mint. All leather seats get a wrinkle or 2 after your butt sits in them for a minute or so. It's the charm of leather.
