yea so i had destroyed tan leather seats in the fd, definitely not comfy enough to sit on, but they were alright until i could replace them.



Last week i scored some nice black suede r2 seats with rails and everything for $325 picked up locally. Seats have a very minor rip on pass right side bolster, could repair it with a needle and thread but no biggie.



pics ho!

my new steering wheel is on it's way, sparco piece with full hub and modified clockspring etc, $200 shipped. my stock wheel was disintegrating slowly lol.



was gonna jump for a full black carpet for $250, but i'll pass for now.



best score for the FD so far was a mint condition rear r1 non-bose black carpet for $50, seller had no idea what he had

not for long just ordered feed front bumper (and authentic feed lights and lenses), feed front fenders, feed sideskirts, re-a rear street diffuser



basically this exact combo except it will be white and i havent decided on lip rolling or not (more up to rob lol) and i can get a pic of the diffuser if anyone wants. its not the kind that hangs down like a tray, it looks almost oem when done right, molds to the bottom of the stock rear bumper.

edit: just noticed that car even has my headlight scoop lol. let's see, $325, $200, $696, $1610 = $2831, there's my economic stimulus for obama. best part is this car is still cheaper then my fc so far so i still call it my budget buildup to people who then look at me crosseyed
