if you dont like the "red drifter-wannabe seats" then get the same Sparco Milanos in black or reupholstered in leather.
most people get flamed on when they say that parts for our cars are expensive and get the whole "you have to pay to play" BS comment and not people are looking to buy some "affordable" seat. get the seat that you can afford and that is comfortable for YOU.
i have the "red drifter-wannabe" Sparco Milano seat because its my buddies and i put it in to see how i like it for a few weeks. the fact that he got both in mint shape for 400 bucks doesnt hurt either.
i personally have a black JIC bucket. my interior is tan but i dont care if it matches or not. its comfortable and when i actually do go drifting...which is usually every other week it definitely pays off.
it even a great seat for daily driving. i have had it in my car for almost a year and its great. it actually felt more uncomfortable to drive in my facotry seat then a bucket.
to each their own though. its your car, your money, and your taste. install what YOU like and not what other people that might be on the other side of the world...especially on forum...approve or not.

Sup HB,
My bad for confusing you. What I meant was I would like to see the entire picture of your car with the racing seats on. That way, based on just my preferences, I can determine whether I like the style or not.
Good topic too, as I will be selling my front stock seats soon. They're black too, and the condition is real good. Don't worry, I'll show pictures of them later on. Just let me get the racing seats done first.

I can't afford them, but the only racing seats I would put in my SC would be Recaro Trend Topline - http://recaro.com/index.php?id=5118&L=2
...although Sparco Milano Prestige would be a close second...

LOL.. Oh boi.., you crack me up bro. You know, I'm so tired of my stock SC seats. I mean it looks alright if you leave your car stock, but once you fix it up, those seats look more and more like grandpa seats. On the other hand, SC's are luxury sport coupes, so I just don't see those aggressive looking race seats ever matching the ride. I really like the 2 pictures I've posted earlier. They look similar to Supra seats, but there's obviously more side support. The only problem is, they don't come in black. Now I'm thinking about dying them. Is this possible?
