Default Do leather CGT seats get creased up?
Hi guys,

Notice how badly creased is the seat (driver's) in this pic? I understand these are 996 buckets, but do CGT seats suffer the same?



Thanks in advance.

When seats in a CGT get creased, the owners just buy another one...another CGT that is!

Mine creased as well. I switched the inserts to alcantara, which doesn't crease. :-)

I've seen all 996 Gt3 seats do that to some degree. They look pretty terrible in my opinion.
