Sort of ugly...like they are OK for a drag car but yours is a street car not some burn out street rod....waste of money as far as I am concerned...

I didn't weigh them on a scale so not sure about exact weight savings but definitly lighter.
They are a lot cheaper than Caraviggo's and all leather with powder coated fiberglass mold. They are extremely comfortable and really hold you well.
I plan on racing and need them to hold me as the stock seats are terrible. I have harness's for both just didn't get them in yet when I took pictures.

Got them from a non forum sponser so pm me if you want to know. They were about half of what the carvaggio seats are.
They are really comfortable up to about 34-36" waist. Anything above that may be tight. I haven't taken on a long trip yet but for an hour trip yesterday they were comfortable. They are more difficult to get in/out of than the stock seats but not terribly bad.
thanks for the comments.
