Thinking about getting aftermarket seats....

Hi...
I got a OB 06copue and I am thinkging about getting a set of aftermarket racing seats.
What do you think about getting a pair of red racing seats in a black coupe?
Any one has done it before?
Also please post your car pic if you have aftermarket seats in your coupe.


Thanks

I think sparco seats actually come with a module to bypass that light. But Brides are definately nice seats. Expensive too

+1, only get them if you're tracking, no other reason but weight reduction and support IMO

I am a big fan of the Sparco and Recaro seats.

You should be able to sell your oem coupe seats to one of us sedan guys too!

What do you guys think about red seats in a black coupe??
Also should I get reclinable or non-reclinable?
Reclinable seems more convenience but non-reclinable looks nicer...
