These Recaros came out of a 2004 Lancer Evolution and are referred to as Evo 8. With manual sliders, these weigh just about the same as the stock electric seats, and are much more encompassing.

OP, great idea for a post- I see many really beautiful interiors here.
My Vette Essentials interior in pewter leather. You can see from the photos that it is fairly nice match to the exterior. I was lucky to get one of the last sets they made. Gonna' miss them, I'm buying another C5 and was going to have them do another set for me.
I currently have C6 seats with the 12-13 foam and leather conversion along with some other red bits. These photos were taken quite a while ago in 2014 when they were installed:
These photos are also BS (Before Steering Wheel)
Since my C5 will more than likely come with a black interior, I will be looking to do something similar to yours. I would probably want to do red/black seat skins, paint the lower half of the door panels red, maybe some red accents on the dash/console, and probably some red floor mats...yours looks amazing!

They are all very nice. Do you guys do your own work, or did you have a shop do it?
I replaced the seat covers myself. It really wasn't that hard to do. Since my covers were aftermarket (Interior Innovations) there were some fitment issues that I ran into but I worked my way around them.
It actually was fun and satisfying to know that I did it myself.
I've used a plethora of different vendors....Happy with all the results
Door panels full leather-Caravaggio....The stitching was highlighted in silver by me.
Found this on an older post. Anyone know who makes a carbon center radio bezel like this that has the leather wrap on the center console around the e-brake handle?

DD Mods used to do it, but they are gone now. I also think Vette Essentials did also, but I understand they are gone too.
