Suede inserts? Very cool. You won't be sliding one bit.

Nice looking seats...they will keep you planted on the curves ( your car might tip over with that SUV ride height though ).

Should be fun. Wanted to try PP for a long time and finally found the right deal. If I end up keeping them, I'll have the centers done in Boxster red.

Mark,

That's going to look sweet! I hope you'll like them. BTW, do you know of a good to excellent upholstery shop in the DFW area? TIA

Thanks! Not planning a suspension change for now. My neighborhood's streets are ditchy and I'm not going to compromise the front end.

Tony - Jastx recomends Johns Fine Crafted Interiors over by Texas Stadium. I don't have first hand, but Jastx is very discriminating, so I'd try trust them.

Spuds - bought them from a friend. They had been used only a 3 or so months. Guy had some fit issues. David - yes, they came with the suede. I think they call it alcantra, bur could be wrong.
