Default bent sport seat

Okay i was in an accident w/ my old 944 and the seat frame of my drivers, leather seat bent, its only the actual bottom part the rest of the seat is fine, i have removed all of the leather, i would need a freame froma sport seat, but if that is gonna cost a fortune then i would probably be better off just buying some other kind of seat, what do you guys think? maybe some kind of race seat? (for autox) I have taken the frame to a body shop and they said they wouldn't be able to bend it back perfectcally. I'm stuck!

Just take this as an opportunity to upgrade to some really nice seat. Sparco makes some really good ones.

Are you sure the frame is the only part that is bent?

The blind mounting nuts in the floor pan like to pull out also.

yeah the floor is fine, it doesn't matter since it is in the old car, the new car is totally fine i just would like something nicer than the crappy fabric seat i have in there now, so i wanted to use my sport seats, but now i am thinking by a cheap, but good race seat, mabye even get harnessbar/ and harnesses. I want to get into alot more autox and maybe even DE

IIRC something like 500$ a piece, no clue if they're less in the US (I wouldn't be surprised)...
