Default New seats

Well I bit the bullet and upgraded my seats to the Corbeau A4’s. Overall I’m happy with the seats mostly because of the added support. I did opt for the leather seats as they will be used solely for street and autox use as I have a FX1 for road course duty. One negative aspect I noticed was the leather was dry as a bone from the factory. Right now I have 3/4 bottle of Zaino leather in a bottle on them and they need more. I also found it odd that my FX1 is more spacious than the A4 seats. The extra 2’’ of shoulder width and 2.5’’ of leg width must make all the difference.

Anyway here's the obligatory pic.

Great looking seats. I should look into some. I have a new set of gforce harnesses, I need to use.

I paid $1400 for the pair (black leather, adjustable lumbar, double-locking sliders).
