Which Seats? I currently am trying to decided which seats I should put in the camaro to replace these damn coth seats
Option 1: Mad Racing Concepts Seats in leather then have a custom seat made for the rear to match some what of the design of the racing seats. The same seats as DEMONBIRD and company
Option 2: Contact a company I know that can make me the same style of seats that are in the 98-02 camaros with ebony leather with silver inserts
And they run about the same costs... So Thats Why Im kinda no leaning either way...

If you were to choose stock, I would stay AWAY from silver and do red inserts...
To me, the gray/silver looks dull and reminds me of the cloth LT1 seats (which I liked a lot at the time, but now are dated)... Not to mention they came factory on Anniv. cars so you're spending a lot of money to get what someone else got from the factory (which can be fine but not if there are better options out there for the same price)...
On the other hand, to me, the red looks SHARP and would give a good contrast to a silver/pewter car...
Here's comparison pics...
The grey/silver:
The red:
I say if you don't do MRC seats do RED inserts on stock seats (don't do red inserts on MRC seats, don't know why but I don't like that...)

If you like any upper body support and do any racing ever, I'd stay away from the MRC seats. I felt like the Pros of the MRC seats was the leather quality, they look good, and have good butt support. The Cons were they sat too high for my tastes, poor quality sliders, awkward to use seatback angle adjustment, and quite uncomfortable in my opinion. The poor upper body support made me feel scared to turn too hard. It's even worse than Camaro seats. My helmet would have hit my ttop panel during racing also.
This is just my opinion. Many here report good stuff about the MRC seats. I am going to put my brand new seats up for sale eventually for real cheap since one seat has a broken crossthreaded bolt stuck in it and will need retapping.
