I can only imagine how much that will cost... A fixed bucket without all the extras in carbon costs about $2500+ each and the BMWP recaros with airbag, reclining etc cost about $2000+ each. I reckon for those, you'd be looking at at least $6-7k per seat if you're lucky lol.

They do look great with heaps of support and all those functions however they might not shave off too much weight.

I sat in some BMWP ones at the last dyno day at Advan and they (Recaro Sportster CS) didn't impress me too much. They look amazing but they seemed less comfortable than the M Sports and didn't seem that much more supportive because of the lack of adjustable lateral support. Also, they were too wide for me, not just around the trunk but also the shoulders. Might be different when driving around though.

Do you know how much your seats weigh? Also, where did you find them?
