Yea, but I'm selling them, I want new ones. The Tenzo's are great, don't get me wrong. I just want all all black seat instead of the black/grey.

I personally like the name Sparco more than Corbeau. More people will recognize the Sparco name, therefore, higher resale.

They are quite a bit more though...

Si seats won't work with my 4 Point Harnesses. plus i don't really care for them in my car. Now if I had an EP3 like some other lucky SOB's that would be a different story.

I dunno, the grey color of the seats wasn't exactly what I wanted for my color scheme. My car is gonna be all black and silver with very small hints of blue.

I want the whole interior to be black.

I agree with Hawk though. I plan on getting Recaro SRDs within a year. Recaro>Sparco>Corbeau. Ooh... I love Recaro.

Sorry, NeonImpact offered 500 for them plus he is coming down from MD for me to install them. Anyways, if he falls through i have another guy down here willing to pay 400 that wants them. These tenzo's are a hot ticket.
