Re:apc racing seats
Is it me or does it seem like there are 2 styles?
One seems to have a wider back (the blue one) that one actually looks good the other looks like crap.
I was thinking about this same desicion. I was looking at this and some Recaro SRD's Seeing as what my 2 lazy boy recliners in my living room cost I think I might just buy an srd for the drivers seat since my passenger is still in mint condition.
If you were going to buy 2, just take that money and buy one good seat (SRD, or something else) trust me I think you will get what you pay for with APC I have a feeling that 8 year old bangladesh boys cant so so good.

Re:apc racing seats
If you find a way of taking the APC logo out with messing up the seat, I'll say go for it. But like everyone else have said it's still APC which pretty much means expensive crap. All of their products are made to look sort of good but cannot perform good at all, The foam they use might be cheap and after a few months they could like deform and look like ----. I bought some cheap Recaro style seat from ebay, they look good and feel good, but have not put them in the car yet and used them to see how long they will last. I paid $160 for 2 seats and they rapped me with the shipping charge $140 so the total was like $300 with universal brackets.

Get some del Sol seats, they are super comfortable and a race-kinda look to em, you can even get them reupholstered to look however you want. They fit right in most Civics, once you swap the rails, and in my case, I sit about 2 inches lower in my 5G civic coupe, which is nice.

Re:apc racing seats
I'd rather sit in one of those aluminum seats that beau has in his race car, that he got from summit, the el cheapo Kirkey seat, hahaha, except everytime I get in it I feel like someone is punching me in the ribs 
I personally like my Sparco seat in my car.. Its the cheapest one they make, but does the job
