Nah, i dont want to wear someones ass sweat that has now permanently embedded itself in the seat for some 20+ odd years. Not to mention it would be thoroughly coated with human slime. But the idea is nice.

Too lazy to click on link, what's the price?

[slammin.e28]

Yeahhhh.....that's kinda tacky.

I can definitely see someone stepping out of their 3gt wearing this..

[McGyver]

$1600 for some old seat leather and an oversized emblem? Shoot, i'd rather just make a cape out of my crusty old seats and call it a day.
