2012 G37 Sedan - Seats starting to color

Hello all, After just getting my new 2012 G37 about 3 weeks ago tomorrow, I noticed over the weekend while cleaning the interior, that my seat is starting to die the color of my jeans (Levi's). Its only been me driving it, and the last 2 weeks Ive been pretty much wearing only jeans. I have the Stone color interior and I noticed it mainly around the left thing area, but other seam areas too are lightly colored.

I had some Armor All that I tried to spray and rub but it didnt really help. A few hours later It wasnt that noticible (I think its because the Sun wasnt directly blaring on the seat at that time). I also have the LuxCare package that I bought in addition that protects the exterior/interior from any stains, scratches, odors, etc. I am not sure what is going on or if anyone else has had this problem. I tried searching and only found a few threads, but nothing too informational.

Any thoughts? Thanks

There is a full set of directions on DI for that. They warn not to randomly use cleaners as it may make it worse....

Here it is:

I have driven mine for almost 18,000 miles and the stone seats look as good as new.
