I too have creases. Unfortunately there's not much you can do about it. I think it's time to invest in a pair of Recaro's.

My '00 Berlina Black with Red started having this problem and it seemed to start all of a sudden. . . I did have 38k miles on the car and I'm not exactly the ideal weight!

I'm avoiding (as much as possible) with my '02 from having this occur and I think it has alot to do with the way we enter/exit the car.

In addition to this, I have started a balanced nutrition diet along with excersice and Yeah, right. . .

Point well taken. I forgot that the bolsters are fairly large.

the side seat bolsters is rather high thats why it gets flattened. what i do is, when you try to get into the car, try to AIM your butt for the center of the seat and avoid the side bolsters altogether. so far my seats look perfect at 8300 miles. i weigh 175 5'11"

when i get out of the car, i use a little bit of the steering wheel to take some weight off my body so i wont flatten the side bolsters

did i mention Zaino leather care once every 3 days?

Ahem...eat less???

You could always try the Dukes Of Hazzard approach. Weld the friggin' doors shut...hell, the car has NO roof, so piece of cake to hop in...unless you Big Mac and McFry eatin' fat bastiges couldn't make it over the door, then I recommend a pulley system like you'd use with the hardtop.

Now, there's an idea...hardtop/fat bastard all-in-one pulley system

Rick, are you paying attention?? I think you can corner the market!!
