Ride is fine, they dont shake or rattle or anything. I feel more comfortable in them but thats just my opionion. My buddy now hates sitting in my car and its slightly difficult for passenger to get out of the seat due to the bolsters.

You have all the carbon fiber accents I wanted to add... I was like I wonder if it would be too much, nope. Did you buy them from the Z store?

These are some cool CF pedals, if you're looking for them.

I don’t have much experience with aftermarket seats, but I would think lower is perfectly fine. I wouldn’t want seats that sat higher though (but again, no experience here).

Is your buddy’s objection because he sits lower? (I’m guessing yes since the Z already has a “high beltline” even with the stock seats). Higher bolsters do make entry/exit a little difficult, but while riding they are more comfortable (unless the passenger is a “wide-body”).

Anyway… nice looking interior.

Very hard to do this (installed seats). Easy to do with seats on a background (not installed).

Hey for those pedals, would you guys get them with a 350Z engraved, with some type of sticker like nismo or just plain?

You can get it custom engraved/etched however you like.

As for stickers, ultimatepedals leaves a "badge pocket" and you supply the stickers yourself. Not sure where you'd be able to find small stickers such as those though.

From the pics, I think the stickers look really good, but would wear and need to be replaced. I'm sure they would be cheap, but unless you can buy them at the dealer, I think it might be hassle.

Not really a fan of the etching though so I'd go plain over that. Oh and I think rubber inserts would be safer and give better grip, but the regular anti-slip looks much better.

At first I thought that they cost the same as OEM, but everything is pieced together. Shiny anti-slip costs $120 without a dead pedal which is kind of pricey. If there's interest, maybe we can get a group buy going. I've seen them hold group buys on many other forums.

is it just me, or are cf interiors just not at all photogenic. It's like the flash throws the whole look off. I'm sure it looks badass in person tho

I really like the look of those door barrels and the shifter piece. I'd just go with the oem covers for the pedals, looks the best imo.
