I guess ill be the first one to say it...

Those seats all look cheap as hell. Not ony are they ugly and poorly made, god forbid you ever get in an accident i bet they would just crumble.

Dont downgrade, the stock seats are fine

That leather = cheap apc viynl. I guarentee you that in person they look 10x worse then they do in those pictures. And they look pretty damn bad in those pictures

Unless youre buying some quality name brand seats(recaro, bride, sparco, etc), dont bother. The stock sti seat is going to be much better quality and much safer then any of the ones above.

You would consider some non approved crappy replica seat in your sti?

Its very cheapy made, the price shows it clearly. Saftey is one of those things which is better not to compromise, stick to quality seats such as Recaro, Sparco, etc....

I agree in every single possible way! I like the leather look in some cars, but the STI isn't one of them.

Stick with the stock seats, keep the airbags and the value of your car too.
