Gotta say Im 27, and I enjoy the stiff feeling of the seats.... they are far from feeling like a Buick leather seat, but two days ago I took my 74 year old aunt to dinner and she love the seats, she just asked me to recline them a bit to the front.... and I gotta mention, she used to drive a 1970 Chevelle SS 454 back in the day... so she likes sports cars... They are deffinetly not uncofortable at all, you just make sure you use your power brackets so you can adjust the height on the front and rear, so you can really feel more confortable.
If you're in Arizona let me know and I'll let you take it for a spin so you can decide by yourself

, is it possible to repost the pics of your Recaro seats again? I like the EVO recaros, good idea.

I guess i'm the only one that noticed.... what front end is on your car ? It looks like a C6 front end ?
Nice seats by the way. Very nice job ! You need to make a write up for folks on how to do the full install (with pics)...

I noticed right away. Looks like some kind of C6 knock off bumper.

Thanks for the comments 
That's my 2F Performance C5.5 front bumper. I designed it and I have it already available for sell. Check:
www.2FPerformance.com
I don't think I'm allowed to talk to much about it without being an sponsor so there it is.
I have to take them off to replace the carpet for a black one, so as soon as I do I'll snap some photos of the modified seat rails and how I installed them

Great looking seats, will you be able to keep your regular seat belts after installing the 4 point belts so you have the options to use either?
