You're the one who bought the seats; not I.

This is a discussion forum. You obviously want our opinion by posting the thread. Unfortunately not everyone agrees.

But those seats don't look to be very comfy. Are they?

there's still the Corbeau emblem below the main script Cyrus. Boy did this company love their logo.

Derek, the seats are decently comfortable, but I'd say after about 2 hours driving your back will be hurting in the lower area. I am going to make my own lumbar support and upholster it in velour with some leftover foam i have in the garage from making chair cushions.

I like the car collection in the background.

Oh and the seats are nice too.

Have a dremmel handy when installing these. Mine weren't an exact fit on the drilled holes, and I had to "slightly modify" one or 2 of the holes to fit the seats.
I have the TRS in my 944 and they're comfortable even after driving 12 hours in it. I love the seats and corbeau does a great job. My only complaint is that mine are 2 years old and faded already. I may just tint the windows to help that though.

Anything where you're going to change the thickness or consistency of the seating surface (using glue or some other adhesive that's going to make a big hard patch) is probably a bad idea.

I would think the only good solution would be some kind of iron-on patch, or to sew them on by hand.

I got the patches on. I used a glue by Beacon Adhesives that is a permanent bonding to fabrics and embroideries. It hasn't damaged any of the surfaces and the patches are on there tight!

Is there anyway you could remove the Corbeau logos altogether (sorry Corbeau)? Those seats would look great all black with the Porsche logo right on the top.
