Congrats, you will love them, and your buddies will drool

I already am, they will as well.
Looking at your photos (outstanding, really like the ZR1 seats), I have no concerns about quality craftsmanship, fit and finish, etc. I hope they are as comfortable as they are good looking. Mine will be black leather, red stitching, perforated leather bottom and back areas, Z06 logo, CF shell...can't wait. I also ordered the CF center console, hopefully I'll see it all soon.

The A4s in leather have grown on me.

Though my fat 5'10" with 38" waist may want to hit the gym before I order anything!

The option of factory rails is appealing. That's a good plus for caravaggio.
You should definitely be saving your pennies for when something on the W220 breaks. The hydraulic suspension and V12 especially. My W220 S600 AMG is getting sold off soon. My wife hates that car lol

I'm 5-11 with a 35" waist and they pinch me a bit around the hips/rib area.

I dont know whats worse. The corvette tax or the people who try to justify it. No seat on earth is worth 6k and frankly even quality seat shouldnt be 1k. Its a friggin seat, not a space shuttle.

Default Speaking of Seats.....

Does anyone have a factory pair of seats for a 98 light oak color with the corvette logo on the back that they want to get rid of? My seats are cracked and drivers side has a couple of rips and I'd like to replace them.
Seats shown here are beautiful but I cant afford them...lol
