Modena Interior fix?

I just picked up a '98 M3 cabrio w/ a Modena interior with a few scuffs in it. Nothing serious, just some minor stuff on the bolsters and the seat bottom. I had the best interior guy in my town look at it in hopes he could re-dye it, but since Modena is a very mottled color, he couldnt do it without making the whole think one perfect solid color.

Anyone know of anything that could be done to it to get rid of the scuffs short of recovering the seats? I'm at a loss...

Sorry...Its Magma...I've never seen a Modena or a Magma interior in person before I bought my car.

Anywho...What the can I do to make it look better? The scuffs are annoying me, and leather conditioner is only helping so much.

thats Magma.. not modena.. and your source is correct.. its near impossible to replicate the Marbling that happens to aged Magma.
