Red seat in a velocity red MSM-too gay?
 
Wife likes the idea of red seats. Seems a bit too much for me.
Thoughts?

sprx3 02-14-2010 02:01 AM

do it, if i know 2 things, if the wife talks about doing stuff on your car DO IT, secondly red faster :D

FRT_Fun 02-14-2010 02:02 AM

too much.

I think black with red accents would look good (assuming they're not some crazy huge racing seat).

^^^This

If wife takes enough interest in your project to give an opinion, then that's a good thing. Do it for her. It shows you value her opinion on things that mean a lot to you. It may also have a positive impact on how much she lets you spend in the future. :idea:

I didn't even like having red belts in mine...but it was largely because my wife was against it as well.

I'm with sprx3...I can't get my wife into my car enough. Just do it.

too much red.
red seats are never a good idea, they get dirty from looking at them.
black with red stitching or embrodery is cool tho

hx1966 02-14-2010 01:20 PM

The seats would have to be VELOCITY red.

Tell her for some reason the red ones are sold out everywhere/more expensive/not in the right size/etc and that they only have black seats or black seats with red stitching. Then ask "which do you think I should get?". This will keep it being a choice she made on your car, but either decision is one you will be happy with.

pure genius

My VR MSM came with red/black seats from the factory, in my opinion it was a bit over the top.

Yea i know i cheaped out...i had it before i boosted i know i was gona get razzed on it. I will be getting one soon but the pricing is crazy for a polished hardog like 800$ plus tax and shipping to over here will be like 1100 canadian.

Faeflora 02-15-2010 12:38 PM

I vote for asking them to send you an uncoated bar and just sandpapering away on it. The round tubes shouldn't be that difficult to get an even finish on.

Rushin 02-15-2010 01:43 PM

i went with blue seats in a mariner blue miata. The only reason i went with them is because the price was amazing.

leatherface24 02-15-2010 02:05 PM

Im going to be doing red seats in my vr msm. i dont care what anyone else says in that regard as ive been wanting to do it for a while. then again, im a raging homosexual so what do i know

02semiata 02-15-2010 02:10 PM

I just got rid of my style bar and installed a harddog. I just got the black one the polish is over the top the black is much nicer and cheaper

Well here it is without it on.

If you do get red seats i dont recommend these sparcos, dont get me wrong they are comfortable as hell but a bitch to fit and less room.

Attachment 200304

like i said i went red with everything :)

Attachment 200305

car show.

02semiata 02-15-2010 03:25 PM

Those pictures are much better hahah. I had those seats in my old ae86 they are not very good for a miata or track days because the recline. But for DD its all good

I rock a red Sparco Sprint now, it works well even for DD. You just can't be a fat bastard child eater.

The attached pic was to show off my camera mount on the rollover bar so its almost useless, but you get the idea.

Also I think it's good to leave the passenger seat stock so they don't bitch about it when getting in.
