Sport seats in Nutria?

[Cracker Red]

Does something like this exist? I'd like to change out the boring stock seats (comfort?) for some sport seats....

Problem is, it's a 84' 318i, and the interior color is "nutria" I believe (more like do-do brown). In effort to keep it somewhat OEM, I'm resisting swapping it to a black interior....

Here is what I'm dealing with:





40K miles interior in near mint condition.

I really like that color. It goes nice with the exterior paint.

Don't do it.

That exterior colour + that interior colour + those seats = classy

Putting sport seats will ruin the effect. Unless you get some classic old-timer type seats. But I'm affraid you'll have to go custom in terms of colour.

Come to think of it, even BMW sportseats would not look as nice as the stock ones IMO.

Keep it clean and enjoy the looks as they are. Looking at you car I would only think of loosing db's, getting weaves and a minor drop. That's it.

Thanks!


Hmm......

Currently the seat (drivers) feels like it bottoms out when I sit down in it. Is that designed that way, or something broken/worn out in the seat cushion.

I AM trying to keep it as original as I can though...

Have Kevin Chin do you a set, to match those. He's local to you in the Atlanta area.

He's looking around, but so far nothing yet....

Still lookin' here. Car i picked up today for the swap has some decent condition e36 sport? seats in it (not vaders).

A few people have suggested Tan seats...although I'm having trouble trying to see that....
