need help finding race/street seats
been getting into track days over the last year and need to upgrade the safety aspects. Roll bar, harness, hans, seats. Would really love a set of GT3 euro seats in sand beige. I see the black ones come up every now and again, but are the beige ones ever around? I found a set on ebay for $3k in natural brown brand new. Can anyone comment if those would match well with my sand beige interior? Would spend 2-3k on them. Seems to be the going rate for good condition used ones.
I think I have the roll bar (BK), harness,Schroth 6pt) and hans figured out I just need to find a good seat that will serve 3-5 track days a year that are also comfortable on the road. $4500+ for seats is out of my price range for the cool GT2 ones etc... Can anyone reccommend a good street/track seat that comes in a matching color to my sand beige. Seems like every seat from sparco, recaro...only come in black red or blue. TIA!

Not a lot of "race cars" come in sand beige.. and most race seats are dark colors to hide dirt etc. I think black and tan look great together though.
If only 3-5 track days per year, you could simply remove and install the "race" seats for when you have an event (or say, for 1-2 months in the summer if that when your events are) and then put back the stock seats for the rest of the year. With the roof down, its quite easy to get the seats in and out of a boxster.

Thanks for the help, but those are just the sport seats. I need the euro GT3 ones that can accept a harness. Those are essentially what I currently have.
