Changing the Stock recaro seat color ...
I drive a TB evo and I would love to have a black interior as well but as of right now buying new racing seats won't be an option cause its $$$$$
plus I dont want my interior to have two colors ... black in front and purple in the back ...
So I was wondering if it would be possible to change all the stock seats to black ?
Dont know if its possible ? but is it possible to dye it to a diff color ... ?
Thanks

Yeah, just find a shop around you that can reupholster your seats with a new fabric; you can even order fabric from recaro or sparco so that it looks like they actually are racing seats. I highly advise you not to do the back seats purple, as it will look childish and quite gay. I would go for a two tone look like sotck, but with dark grey and black.

just send an email to recaro
i sent an email a few days later they emailed me back with a dealer list for my state, i called one of the authorized recaro dealers and they say that i can get the fabric i want for 105.00 a yard, now i just need to find a guy to do the reupholster work but it will be with genuine recaro fabric.....if your going to do this, do it right and spend the money one it to get a kick *** looking interior

i've got a guy here in the St.Louis, MO area that's doing my front and back seats in Sparco Red(more durable than Recaro). i've seen his work before and it looks stock. very reasonable price as well!

I have been wanting to do this as well. Two tone, with black leather suede/alacantra on the outside and red leather in the middle. i really like leather, and with the suede on the outside it will keep slipping around to a minimal! You're **** looks good. I wonder if I could get them to put the Recaro logo back
