Default new seats?

I am considering the $650 seats from 6litereater but am affraid of quality issues... they seem to be no name seats correct me if im wrong... but also wanted to see what else was out there. I have a black interior and want it to match. Looking for some better seats than stock because I loath stock seats cuz they are very poorly built and my driver seat has withered away. I want some that really "hug" your body. I sat in a buddies cobalt supercharged ss with recaro seats and they were really nice. Any recomendations?

Interesting. Just looked them up and they are 314 dollars a pair elsewhere. 6Le id like to give you my business but could you explain why yours are literally twice as much if they're the same seats?

being that theyre recaro knockoffs they grip really similarly. supposedly they dont grab the shoulders as well, but i really love the feel. quality doesnt seem sub par, aside from the tilt mechanism which is just a crank not a lever.

you might want to consider that 6LE's price includes shipping, where do you find them for $314 a pair? I'm assuming they are cloth for $314

Dang he found them cheaper than I did. The ones I found were synthetic leather not cloth... I assumed shipping wasn't included I wasn't insulting 6litereater just wondering why they were so spendy. Can they be custom embroidered?

That's misleading though... There's a reason I don't say "made by Yonaka". Yonaka carries these seats yes, they are not (exactly) what I sell though.

I pay them to modify them in CA before they ship so they are easier to mount to our factory rails (if people so choose) which is also a reason for delays in shipping sometimes (they are back ordered right now)...

Regardless, my pricing is per pair SHIPPED (within the 48 states and CA) and would be the same as ebay ($300 + $120) except the extra $80 which is my cost for the alteration. Hence my $500 price tag (you said $650 but that's for my REAL leather and all the links are for synthetic).
