IMO if it ain't real CF, then it ain't worth puttin in (and why would you put REAL CF in your seat anyway). Black with silver please.

Oh and congrats on your sponsorship.

Why not all black seats with silver contrasting stitches. To much silver in my opinion.

I say go all black with bright silver stitching like reddragon333 said. Fake carbon fiber is cheesy, and I think those seats that were posted are, too.

Cool yeah. I definately want a new look for the seats. The stock grey sedan ones are real bad.

They look decent. I got rsx s leathers just cause i think the feel of the stock seats suck and they dont bolster you in at all.
