Buckets with Green stitching were not made, but you can get them custom made. They would be hard to sell later on when you sell the car, unless you give them away with the car.
Yellow seat belts look horrible. Door pulls are a gimmick, insignificant weight savings, and ugly looking. Yellow calipers are ugly too. I would custom paint the calipers in the same Avocado shade, do a photoshop and you will like it.
Lose the heavyweight side mufflers, lose the pig heavy seats, lose the heavy battery, the car will lose close to 120 lbs and go faster, look better, and sound much better.

A member on another forum is looking into the seats with green stitching for me.
The car already has the RSS x-pipe, but I wouldn't mind upgrading to the Akrapovic Sports Cup system.

Congrats! Great car - love the color
Green stitching is cool, but personally I wouldn't bother trying to get it on you buckets. Contrary to above I think yellow calipers with green looks great. But my vote is no on yellow belts. I considered it briefly but ended switching red for black. Yellow belts plus green stitching plus green bar

Congrats, I am green with envy!
If you want buckets with matching stitching, call Speedwear (ironically not far from where you got the car); they have some limited edition Sparco RS-DTM carbon seats that will match yours perfectly!!! Very reasonably priced too...
I have no affiliation either, I just really want to see pictures of these seats finally married to one of these cars.

Congrats on your purchase, I almost bought this car myself but Ken and I couldn't align our schedules so I ended up with a pumpkin.
Great car with a classy prior owner, can't do much better.

Thank you. Wish I could have bought it directly from him as it probably would have been a better deal for both of us, but Ferrari of Washington was also great to deal with.

I'm quite flattered that many rennlisters know me by name and personally because of the ownership of two awesome 911s. Ara, you're getting a great RS and hope you got a great deal too. Shoot me an email if you have any questions. The previous owner 355michael is also here but he doesn't come online much.
I'd go with OEM bucket seats because I think they look the best with CF backs and fits me well (5'11'', 150lbs dude). Original parts always wins unless they are the faulty ones such as coolant hoses. If you're feeling spendy, I'd go for Carrera GT seats. Jon70 had them in his old RS and those look ridiculously nice!
He's right. Buy my rims! I need to find my thread again, actually.
Clark, I plan to be at Zone 2 again with Adam next year even if we won't have Porsches. Rad should do a road trip and join the fun as well.
Congrats Marc!
