    Are these actually going to be lighter than original? ie it's not carbon over original (can't see the point otherwise). If they are replacing the plastic what is the weight saving and finally are these being made by somebody who know what Carbon does in an accident and how they are likely to brake and hence which way the weave shoudl go. Carbon can slice you nicely if it isn't offering the strength in the right direction????????

        sounds good Dazza.

        Andy is the guy I am going to get my trim done by, I'm sure the backs on the seats will be nearly as much as buying some like Dazza is doing

          Daz, don't Recaro already do these? CSL seats are basically Recaro PP's without the holes aren't they? Any idea on a rough price yours will be?

          Here's the carbon PP's (4.5kg):

          DesignTek also do a PP-alike seat (6.5kg), though the back's not as pretty, but for about £300 each it's not bad:

                    horrible looking seats and i just hate that much exposed carbon but then again - @6kg they aren't intended to look good, are they?

                          If you carry rear passengers, i think it's a bit pointless. Would cry if they got scuffed...

                          The NSX-R uses the CSL seat, just with the harness holes and CF back. First thing i thought when sitting in one was "Like being back in the CSL"

                                The plastic back on my seat is really getting scruffed up. Would love to find out if the carbon backing in the original post could be purchased anywhere?
