Well, it's going to be time to get myself some nice aftermarket seats in the ol' stang. I'm lookin at leather, black and white patterns to be exact, but the only downfall is everywhere i've looked, they don't sell any white leather on seats unless it's done on a custom job...
so if anyone can help list off some places i can look into, it would be greatly appreciated...

So far i've checked into

- Recaro
- Sparco
- Corbeau
- Cerullo
- Summit
- Jeg's
- Momo

and i think that's it.

I believe my best chances are Recaro's, Corbeau's or Cerullo's...
but like i said, no white leather seats without custom.

I also want no writing on the seats either. I hate having a billboard as an automobile

you could try www.autoleathers.com and they can make new custom covers for around 600-700 bucks and that I believe covers both seats and the back seat.

just an option I guess

I was thinking on recovering them, but I've come to the conclusion I want aftermarket seats instead, but i found this on their site:

Really?
I like them in a solid colour:

But as soon as you start mixing colours I think it looks... weird?

Get the Jegs ones and report back on how you like them. Pretty soon I will be getting either the Jegs ones or the Summits.

Recaro gets my vote, I like the deeper bottom ones though, there the profi spa's.
Expensive as all hell but, the feel and comfort level is outta control. I have these in my corvette, and for the price they gave me the color and seating surface I wanted, I chose flame red leather, shipped they were $2185 and they fit me like a glove. Too expensive for a daily driver I think but awesome seats.

Recaro are the way to go. Those seats are awesome, but just be ready to shell out some dollars.

Yeah i was expecting the Recaros to be a fortune, especially if i want the seats to be custom leather, but white94cobra brought up an interesting thought.

I had initially thought about the jegs seats, but they look uncomfortable to me
I've never been in them myself to be honest, but i did sit in a pair of APC racing seats I would rather have a cardboard box for a seat than use them.

Hmmm... see that's what's getting me... because this car IS my daily driver...
so you wouldn't suggest them for a dd?

Way too much for a DD, expense wise, comfort level is outstanding I have literally drivin for hours on end with no discomfort. Like I said though too expensive, get the lesser recaro seat there just as comfortable.

"It costs to be the boss."
Those would look nice but they would be destroyed in 2 days if I had them.
