Default Caravaggio's new Sebring race seats

We just finished all the development work for our new Sebring race seats. These are based on the stock OEM seats. All functions remain including the side air bag.

Looks nice but my big complaint on the factory seats are how heavy they are. Do your seats add, decrease, or are neutral in mass compared to the factory units?

Your right, I can't believe how heavy the seats are now. They are neutral.

Holy crap that is GREAT looking.

I've been thinking about how good the C7 seats would look with angled lines in the seat from the beginning of the C7 launch... When I saw the lines in the C7 seats straight across the seat, first thing I thought was "that seat would look great with angled seams".

It adds more of an exotic look to the car... Great job!

I'd also be interested in red seats with black stitching or a two tone red and black seat. These are sweet!

I had decided the regular GT seats were good enough for me... until I saw these
