Any fix for stretched leather?
I have been looking to get a 2008 528i and I would prefer to have dakota leather over leatherette. However, most of the ones I find around 40-50k miles, the leather is fairly stretched out and especially stands out with the cream leather. Leatherette obviously holds up better but I would much rather have dakota leather. Any tips/fixes for the stretched leather?

Borrow a paper stretcher and run it in reverse.

Only way I know of to shrink leather is to soak it with water then as it dries it will shrink.

Steam can do it. Have a look at this video for inspiration:
