I was noticing that my driver side seat bolster was beginning to seem a bit worn. I had looked at seat covers but I didn't want to cover up the leather. Then I came across these seat "chaps" and decided to buy them. Curious what others think. They seem to be work well since they are tightly stretched in place, don't shift around while driving, and do let the leather come through. I do wish they didn't have the logo on them though.
Whaddya think?

Chaps kind of have the Village people look to them not that there is anything wrong with that ![Stick Out Tongue](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
Actually I cant talk since I have sheep skins on mine since I leave the top down most all summer and those dark colored leather seats sure get hot in the Florida sun

I say you dump the Super Seat Saver Spandex and take this opportunity to pick up some new seats ...
not necessarily Porsche ... but perhaps something after market
Just a thought, it might be a little better than something that lifts and separates

Wow! I struck a comedic nerve with that one! It's actually amazing to me that car guys can be that creative in their ball busting. Don't worry, I did get a laugh out of this (although with a bit of a red face).

My actual long term plan is to get new seats, and I was just trying to protect these until then. I drove BlueHeeler's 964 recently and noticed a huge difference in his seats, which I think were factory sport type. Kind of made mine feel like bench seats in terms of body stability. So, I hope some day to get replacements which are much more confining.

Well don't feel bad the look like they do the job, I have a set of wet okle that I used for a long time didn't really like the look but preserving the seat was more important... It's probably more the contrasting color, the black, synched down tight against the full, plentyfull bolster, cut away at just the right uh...oh...uh what was I saying?...oh never mind...I got distracted by barrys post...
