what do you think of these seats?
 
i have been looking for new seats for my civic but every place wants too much money. i was on ebay last night and found these for $179 for both, not a bad deal.all i could think of is "whats gonna break on them" or "can the quality be that shitty". what do you guys think of them?

I know they are a mugen knock off, but i think they actually look pretty good. Im curious to see how comfortable and durable they are, though

I think it is cheesy. why buy fake mugen seats that look nothing like real ones and try to front when you can buy a decent set of blank seats for appx the same price?

Re:what do you think of these seats?
 
but how much is shipping on those seats? I'd rock em if they were completely black and blank. Maybe you could cutout the mugen stiching. But overall it looks good, and for not a bad price either.

Re:what do you think of these seats?
 
they look a whole lot like a pep boy's "3a racing" seat w/ a mugen patch on it to me. I'd make fun of you if I saw them in your car on the street.

Re:what do you think of these seats?
 
I'd laugh everytime I looked in the rear view only to find I was laughing at myself :-[ :P

But bam, you gotta admit, for 179, it ain't that bad. If you bought one 3a seat from pepboys you deserve to be laughed at spending 300 on a booty seat, but this is a pair man... two! as in 1.... 2.... twooooooo.

That is a pretty good deal (ebay). I wouldn't go for the Mugen knock-offs, I hate when people buy ---- thats not real like that.

stillnoturbo 09-15-2004 07:40 PM

Re:what do you think of these seats?
 
I heard the material is pretty shitty on those and loses shape pretty fast and then the material starts to sag and then looks like your gramma's boobies! Ewwwww :P

looks good, buy em tell us how they are and i might pick myself a set up ;D

Re:what do you think of these seats?
 
I like the look, but quality? WHo knows how long they will last. I'm getting 1 Sparco Sprint, Used for only 7 races in a VW Golf for 200 CAN with harnesses. Not because I like the looks, but it holds you in like Snot!!!

I don't like adjustables seats, I find them not tight enough for my liking!! All depends what you want them for.

AT A BETTER PRICE

Re:what do you think of these seats?

seats that don't recline are a plus for me, I don't have to pick up my little sister and her friends "sorry bitches, I only got two seats."

Re:what do you think of these seats?
 
they weight 13 pounds only.

TunerToys 09-15-2004 09:54 PM

Re:what do you think of these seats?
 
$179 plus $150 for shipping for racing seats that recline? That sounds like a smoking deal! As long as the quality is there, I'd do it. This guy has 24,000+ feedback, you'd have to feel pretty safe with that!

You will be dissapointed with those seats. I swear to you. if your car/drving is at a level where you really need racing seats, you'll know why you need a good set of them. those seats will not be benificial in any way.

Re:what do you think of these seats?
 
why don't you go on honda tech, there's a guy selling some bride knockoffs, even had the bride logo on them, I think he was askiing 400 I don't remember for sure though, but they looked good.

robs99si 09-16-2004 08:19 AM

Re:what do you think of these seats?
 
when i want to buy something on ebay and i'm doubtful i email some of the people who bought the same item from that seller and see what they tell me.

SkunT 09-16-2004 09:33 AM

Re:what do you think of these seats?
 
I think the seats would be a good buy. if you are just gonna use the seats for comfort and style, its a great buy IMO.

if you are gonna be on a circuit track or something where your ass is tossed around your seat alot, there would be a reason to put money into a decent seat.

my $.02 are in.
