Painted Sport Bucket Seat Pieces
These are ready for install. I have a white Spyder. Bought 2 sets to see if I liked carrera white or guards red - painted at a trusted body shop.
I assumed white but the red looks sharp. Any opinions?

Can you take a picture with them sitting in place but not installed?
I've seen white and it looks sharp but I've never seen red.

My Spyder is white/red leather. I prefer the white inserts.

If you had ordered from the factory for your car it would have been white, but then again I am biased...

Installed.
Installed - went with white for now, going to paint stock pieces now. Body shop charged me $150. This was a $600+ factory option. Torx T-20 needed for screws.

Are you going to try the red ones? It would be interesting to see that contrast compared to the white.........

I liked the red too, sold them to ONLY1BUCK.
But now I have the stock set and am thinking to paint those too. Might do RED anterior, WHITE posterior. Will send pix when I get around to it.
Mirrors are Basalt Black and Guards Red.

I think the darker inserts look best. I would like to see the red.
