The color on top vs throughout is the difference between spray dyed and vat dyed leather - if you just look at the back of the hide you can tell the difference as vat dyed is colored on the back. Both types still are used. I believe that all automotive leather in new cars has a protective coating applied - that's what controlls the gloss.
