Sonus Faber peeling leather

Hi
I recently bought a pair of SF Lilium, BNIB, and upon unpacking, found that the leather had started to peel. The dealer took them back. The dealer is having it re- wrapped but I was wondering if anyone has done this properly (not just sticking another layer over it) or does it have to go back to the factory to be done properly?
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I just went to take a look at the speakers. One side was done. They were done very professionally. The fit and finish was as good as new. They used a more durable felt type material that will be more durable than leather in tropical weather where I am and the dealer will warranty the job for 10 years, so I have decided to keep them. Most SF leather will eventually peel in the tropics. Thanks for all your advice!
Cheers
J

Hey Jared, may I know where you went to replace the leather as the leather on my cremonas are peeling too. Thanks

It was done through the former agent for SF.

Slightly off subject but noticed a small manufacturing defect on Olympica models at recent show - the plastic molding around mid (and tweet) wdnt sit flush - either side of mid at thinnest point. I cant understand how that is acceptable tbh. 
More to discover
