Gentleman (and Ladies - you know who you are),
Its been a while, and I hope you all are doing well. I just got my seats back from re-covering at Old Skool Kustoms in Monticello, MN and thought I'd toss up the first round pics before I put together my site page.
The story of these goes back a ways, but the gist of it is I wanted light, adjustable back NSX-R seats - but they don't make them! I had my old Jamex tube frame race seats that I loved the feel of, but the material was going to hell, fading, ripping, etc., so I asked the musical question, "Can I get the exact same material that Recaro used to cover the CF buckets in the NSX-R?" And the answer came back 'Yes!'
The outside is the Recaro foam-backed Jersey in red, and the inside is perforated red suede. Here's how they got to where they are:
The old seats:
The guys at Old Skool getting ready to start snipping:
How they turned out:
I'll drop a pic here when I get them installed.
Now I'm not says these are the coolest seats you can buy for less than $8000 each or whatever the hell the factory ones cast, but they are damned close.
Cheers!
