Welcome to Corvette Forums 
The forum supporting GM parts dealers will most likely have them (Trunk Monkey,GM Parts Direct, GM Parts etc), will be expensive, however most likely less than your typical dealer.
Have you sat in them? I would try them out as some seem to like how they sit and others don't.

You may also want to post in and keep an eye on the C7 Parts For Sale & Wanted Forum as some have ordered the competition seats in their new C7s and not liked them and replaced with the sports seats.
May pick up a pair cheap that way.

I converted the standards seats to the Competition variety; was about $1900 for the kit.... one kit does both seats. Bought from a forum vendor.
Not all that difficult to do, but it is a time consuming task
