Check the specs for a 295/30/19. That may actually work.

Those seats came out so nice!! Purty 😍
How is comfort level compare to old seat?
what material is that? Couldn’t tell. Didn’t look like alcantara.

Your build always on another level!

Thanks! Comfort is a tiny bit less on the new one. The white one has really soft pluffy foam and leather is also very soft so I kind of sink in it. My goal with the second one was to a have a little more room with the same seat shell, so I wanted it to have thinner but firm foam on the back and sides. It came out just like how I wanted. It is all leather. And red cushions come off easily. They’re held by strong magnets so they always go back on the same way. The idea is to be able to make even more room if need be, by removing the red back and sides, the shell was covered with thin firm foam and then with white leather. The bottom cushion is layered with firm and softer memory foam. I dunno, maybe the color theme kind of mimics several cuts of steaks! Haha! But once I had installed in the car, it blended in perfectly. The red is also a very very close match.

Sorry about making it look like I edited your post I still sometimes accidentally click "edit" instead of "quote" when replying.

Drained, flushed, and refilled with red coolant! And went for a drive to test out the new seat, love it. Test out the FIGS floor plate, love it! And to make sure everything is good after the coolant work.

Hi, please check post no. 401, I think it’s around page 26 or 27 of this thread.

Yep I went through the entire build! Love it. Just seeing if you had more pictures..hahaha ;-p
You are the second person I saw here that has this spoiler. Looks really nice. I'm trying to figure out if I'd get it painted to match my car honestly. I have no CF on the exterior, and as much as I LOVE carbon fiber I think I'd want it to all blend in. From your pictures it looks like it stick out from the back of the trunk lid and slightly curves up (not true duck tail, but a slight slop?).

Awesome build!
