Default New Seats

I'm getting ready to order the Cobra Misano L's in black.
Before Spending an arm and a leg, is there any other seat you would recommend? 3500 is what they cost with rails shipped to the door.

Is that leather, got pics of what they will look like. Thats no too bad of a price. I had looked at these a while back and they were more than that. Mine had heated leather seats though. I don't know if you did all that or not.

I'm partial to Bride, but $3500 would get you a pretty decent set.

They're all leather with carbon shell. Not heated. Stock seats are heated. I do lose that feature, but I don't drive it in the cold.

I called them and they said they could add the heated seat to them and it would run me another $300 for both seats. Not too much extra but I hate loosing features in my car. I figure if I'm upgrading I shouldn't have to loose features like heated seats. I don't use mine much either but still wanted it. Anyway, those are really nice seats. I don't know if you've sat in them before but they are very comfortable. A friend of mine had them in his M3 and I loved them.

Quite a few mods. Out side is complete for now. I would like to make a wheel change and add flares to the back only. Maybe next year.
The inside is almost complete. I've been working on it for the past year and a half. Will be completed by the middle of Sept. Were taking up to Chicago at the end of Sept. for the Nopi/HIN show.
Once I finish the inside I'll create a post with pics.
Stay tuned.
Thanks for posting.

I'm 6' and weight 180.
With everything I've read I should fit into them.

I thought about the two tone. The outside of the Z is red and carbon.
I converted the inside from the battle ship gray to Black and carbon. The only other color inside is the red french stitching on the black leather.
Very tough to remove all the gray inside the car.
The only thing left to change out is the gray door welts.
Dealer wants $95 for each of the welts in black.
Unfortunately there is no Z's at any of the junk yards here in the STL. I've been checking for about 5 months

Just ordered them. Should be in Monday.
Second most expensive purchase for the car.
Big brakes still hold the number one spot.

Thanks.
I agree about the brides. But don't get me wrong.
Bride does make a good quality seat. I just fell in love with the cobra seats about 2 years ago when I saw them in an add in Import Tuner.
