    i spray painted my rear shelf and it turned out pretty good one of my buddies has a rear back seat in black for free in orange county
    Thanks guys'!! What kind of spray paint did you use on the rear shelf? I'll be in touch about the rear seats! I might go check out socal vintage and a drift event oct. 7-9. So if I don't have a black rear seat by then I will definitely take one of you guys up on the offers!

    both of the front speaker covers are imperfect. I will eventually find a pair of black ones at the junkyard. meanwhile I sanded them down, primed, then sprayed with sem trim paint, since I had that laying around (more of an acrylic based paint). better that than bbq black!



    The door panels I got had manual window crank - cut outs. I had to cut the panel to fit the rear window switches. The hole bugged me so I went to Lowes in search for a plug of some sorts.



    Found these hillman 1" plugs (884313 furniture tip) that were perfect.

    So as for the exhaust...I placed an order on some flanges, hangers and one more 30 degree bend. It's been 10 days since the purchase, i'm getting very impatient over here. Good thing it is a HUGE work weekend in Vegas again!

    The parcel shelf is easy enough to paint, just remember to brush it otherwise the fabric becomes stiff and weird.

    The rear seat is tough, I tried to dye a tan cloth seat black and failed miserably so then I had a houndstooth rear seat to match the houndstooth door panels I had at the time and still didnt like how it looked. I eventually settled on just having a black vinyl seat since it matches the current black vinyl door cards I have (exactly like yours).

    Massive recaro seat adapters are super nice and easy to install.



    acquired some black sedan door cards locally!




    and both seats mounted...(had to install the driver seat by passing it through the passenger side since the car is still up on jackstands). Very happy with how it looks. I just need a black rear seat, black parcel shelf, and front speaker kick panels in black to make it look how I want it.

    Quick Recaro question, does anybody know what these exactly are? He included these bases that were for an "office chair conversion" or tradeshow/shop display. No Recaro markings anywhere on it though....



    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
    Haha that's funny. Must've been when I traded my old sport seats for the one from my buddy.

    Ironic thing is I'm back to one seat again

    That bracket looks exactly as it was described to you. To take a Recaro and make it into an office chair. Pretty cool, actually
