I currently use the hybrid, it works great, I did have to put a felt strip along the back to prevent it from scuffing the center pad. No issues at all since. Would recommend it.

 

 

I did the felt strips as well and purchased a headrest cover from Crazie Eddie designed to protect the CF with a Hybrid S. Works great. The cover has a couple of small dents that would been scratches in the CF. If you don't have his bolster covers you might want to order both.

 

I've used a hybrid for the past two seasons in my GT4 with LWB. No precautions taken, no damage noted. It's possible that torso length and posture might make a difference though and I just got lucky. I should probably go find some felt

 

Thank you for the responses. I will be placing an order soon!

 

 

For those that have used HANS as well, is the Hybrid more comfortable given the seat angle?

 

I had similar experience... I used about 20 days last year and no marks whatsoever
