I sold my old Spirit R seats to get these because these were in mint condition. When I had the older Spirit R Recaros with faded cloth, I did get an estimate to recover in suede. The quote was $1500-2500. For say $1500, I rather get a new set of wheels to match the interior vs changing the interior to match the wheels.. Wheels are dime a dozen these days (except select few wheels, ie my gun metal Gram Light 57C) vs. Spirit R seats.
Yeah I understand I'd do the same, wheels change the look of the car more then the seat trim. My point was just cause some part used to belong to a spirit-r doesnt make it non-modifiable. Plus your car looks very nice we're just splitting hairs here.

I'm guessing you haven't gotten around to suspension work yet, but the project looks interesting.


I have full coil overs, my old driveway was horrible the front bottom of my bumper is still scraped up. Plus i'm not all about the retards who drop the car down to an inch then can't even drive the car into a parking lot for fear of speed bumps.

^ Even though I do have pistons, I personally dont care what the sticker says. The sticker is probably the most tacky thing i've ever seen put on an FD.

Is it me or can you tell whats an east coast car and a west coast car? to me it seems like thats a car you will only see in California, i dont think a lot of guys would rock those wheels and stickers on the north east, but it looks good, has a good look to it, just not my cup of tee

Need to be honest with you, that's Gordon's car and he's spent a whoolleeee shiiiieeetttt load of money on it to make it perfect. I'm pretty sure wrapping his seats in the same way would probably be the price of an FC and as Phil already said, the same price as new wheels.
