Yes lopro, those are the ones I was referring to for $6k. I'd take those over the alcantara ones all day. Those wheels are the Tech 110's....super light. I have 2 sets. I know not everyone likes them but I do. They've done quite well for me. I bought my dive plains from Suncoast. They are carbon fiber. Very easy to install and they hold on well with the double sided tape....much better than expected.
I think the wheels are great, I hear they are good weight reduction over stock.Do you know what they weigh so i can be surë? Looks good to me..
As for dive plains,
really eh? I didnt know they were CF. I guess (unknown why) I thought they were plastic. When I get them Ill know more, I only ever saw them in pictures. Are yours refinished in Black or is that just the pic lighting? I didnt know they were avalible in black or carbon, damn i think mine are silver I didnt see any options for another colour.

I usually don't sweat much or pee in my cars. in friends cars, yes.
but alcantara looks ugly to me. I'll take leather over them

mole... LMAO.
i have mole in yard. i tried EVERYTHING nothing works. so once day, i shoved a hose into the hole (my house was an ex fire house, so the water pressure is scary, most ppl using my shower think they are going to drown).... so sat there for 2 min, saw this little thing come out. but it's not moving. then i realized it probably blind in day light. i whacked the holy shi*t out of it, mind you, it's in a lot of pieces. got it into a bag and whacked it for 15 min... i think it's pulp by then. then send it to its maker. that's how i like mole skin? oh, it's not a one time encounter. i dot this every weekend when i am not on track. it REALLY helps with stress relieve.
who is clarkson? the moron on TV talking about cars? he reminds of me of mole. but i dont have bags big enough to put him in so i can whack him. i also would need a bigger hammer.

polarporsche mentioned on 6speed that alcantera seat inserts can be had from http://www.carnewal-europe.com/main.htm for a much better deal
$595 euros = $757 USD On the site it says the shipping is included (but im not sure if this is in europe only - I also hear they have a US dealer too)
bit better than the 3k at suncoast.

It sounds like the foam cushion is not included in the description of the seat covers on the Carnewal site...but I could be wrong. It says, "The original foam parts are to be swapped over to the new covers."

This is a GT2 seat with our Alcantara inserts.
These can be made in any leather or Alcantara color, including GT2RS red.

Heritage trim is currently making me a set of red alcantara inserts that include new seat cushions for $400. For an extra $250 they are going to put in carbon seat heaters into the inserts. I plan to wire
into the stock seat heater relay that my spyder originally came with. OEM looking heated carbon bucket.
I will post when they come in.

The listed price includes the shipping to the US.
Correct, the same counts when you purchase the $$$ original seat covers from Porsche. The foam parts are very easy to swap and are Velcrod in place.

You also sell the inserts for the 996 GT3 seats, correct? I think they are quite a bit cheaper at Euro 350 shipped. I have a set of OEM black leather GT3 seats and would like to get inserts made in either leather or Alcantara to match a Graphite Grey interior of a 2002 996 turbo. You wouldn't have any pictures of the grey inserts for those seats by any chance? Am I correct in that the inserts are not an OEM product but the fit and finish is on par with OEM quality?
Thx,
John
