i have a 1995 hellrot red m3 with black leather interior.
what seats should i get? i think i want sparco or momo seats.
what are your opinions on sparco seats and what are your opinions on momo seats?
i dont know any specific models or names of any momo seats.
if i get sparco seats, i think i might get the sparco evo2.
if i get momo seats, what are some good seats to get?
another topic : COLOR.
i know black seats would look nice in my car. how would red racing seats look? the red would match the exterior color of my car, and it would stand out more, but would it look sort of cheesy or ricey?
thanks in advance.
P.S. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY HOOKUPS ON RACING SEATS? PLEASE LET ME KNOW. thanks!

if you can find a set in black with red accents, that would look great!
the evo2 are a great seat, but the best i have sat in is the recaro SRDs. sweet mother of god that is one awesome seat!

A lot of people were selling black Recaro SRDs with red stitching pretty recently. That would look great in your car. I'll second the Bride seats also.

bride seats are NICE, but to me, they are more of a JDM thing. i think bride seats in my car might look funny.
im either going to go with sparco, momo, or recaro. im still unsure though.
anyone have any pics of black recaro srd with red stitching?
thanks, guys.

I have seen some on EBAY for sale.
I just use the word Recaro to search with and it pulls up some limited edition SRD seats.
Here are a few pics of some:

BRIDE seats are usually really expensive. I say go with red Sparco EVO's or EVO2's

Dont buy any seat without sitting in it. For a while i was considering buying sparco evos, and i went and tried them out. They were awesome.
Just curious... who makes the least expensive seats?

just remember that if you want a seat like the evos your not going to be able to have easy access to the back seat because they dont fold down. just keep that in mind. also check into cobra seats. they have some nice ones as well.

SHOOT! thank you SO MUCH for telling me that.
evo2 = non-reclinable. i forgot, i have a coupe. haha man, i never even though about that.
are reclinable seats such as recaro srd able to be folded foward to allow access to the back seats?
thanks.

Try to stay away from Recaro's on ebay..... i've heard of people selling fake-ass wanna be recaro seats with the "RECARO" just embroidered on. Just be careful

my cousin has pro 2000's in his 95 m3, im sure most of you guys know the car, rieger WB yellow m3 on the cover of performance bmw
a few months ago, the controversial 700BHP one, but he can get in just fine, you just have to slide the brackets all the way up
and you can slide in the back, so you cna still have access to the back :D
