I don't know anything about tha A4's so no thoughts on those but I vote for new skins (and foam depending on your mileage). They are easy to install, affordably priced and they make your interior look and smell brand new.

If you are looking to have the seat repaired, give "The Interior Guys" a call. The phone is: (804) 897-8777. They repaired a door panel for me and did an excellent job.
