Cages are a pain in the ***, and obsolete on a show car. Get the seats. Go with some nice Recaro's. Then color coordinate the door panels and rear seats to match somehow. That will add some flash fo' sho'.

have you done the !wire mod?, It's all in the details, alot of small stuff can be the difference from standing out from the crowd and looking like everybody else. I was just studying pics of Steve's engine bay on the 2000 Camaro he had. There are alot of things that he did that you might not notice right away but if you parked it next to somebody else they would jump out at you. And try to do something different from everybody else buying bolt on stuff may make it easy but may not give it what your looking for.
