        Is that a factory recaro sport driver's seat? What's it covered in, suede?

            I am in Wichita. And no not factory Recaro, the car was tan vinyl sports which I switched out. The drivers side is now a Recaro orthoped and the passenger seat is a Recaro expert M. Both seats are covered in Nardo. I'll put some pics of the seats up tomorrow sometime.

              Non-matching front seats would drive me crazy.

                  There really isn't a difference between the seats besides the adjustable leg support. The back and bottom are almost identical. I bought the passenger seat new and the drivers used. The drivers side needs to be cleaned but was going to get it redone at the same time I get the back seat done to match the front nardo. I couldn't find a used orthoped passenger seat when I was looking so I just bought the expert new, I wasnt going to drop 3k for a new orthoped. I'll post up pics tomorrow of the seats and and some other things I have done to the car.
                  I have a goal for the car and I am maybe 1/3 of the way there although I still have a few parts I need to put on the car.

                          Interior looks great, love the MTech 2! I just ordered one myself, but i'm interested to hear how you feel about the alcantra. Got anymore pics of the front seats?

                            Go to the dealer for it, it listed for 370 + 70 for the center but, I got it for cost. Gotta give em the exact part number though as the alcantra wasn't in the system.
                            I like the alcantra a lot, it will take some getting used to compared to the leather though. As soon as the wife leaves for work so I can get the car out of the garage I will take some pics and post em up.

                            edit: here is one in the garage.
