Maybe later this year i might go all out and get a whole evo interior. panels and everything (hopefully leather but still cool if not) and have an auto upholstry shop do all the work for me lol

probably a price tag of 2000-3000 if i buy leather ones. id be more than happy with cloth though.

This isn't an issue with the front Evo Recaros, as you simply swap out the seatbelt clips on the Recaros with the ones from your stockers. Dunno about the rear seats, though.

The recaros are a better value and are a much better product, you should go for them.

I never get excited about an ebay auction until the last day. It's always the last 24 hours that the high bids seem to double, triple, or more!

yea my mom is obsessed with scott stapp.....so one christmas me and my ex decided to find an autographed picture on ebay. She is an ebay guru and i dont even have an account so she did the bidding and while she was at work i took care of it. well the last 6 or so hours it kept getting bids and it was at like $30 so i put a max bid of 100.00 before we went out that night. well we come back and check and she notices that i put $10000.00 instead of 100.00 so she got SOOO pissed and it went all the way up to like $80. yea THANK GOD it didnt go higher...i think i had $100 to my name at the time

Great story. Good thing someone who was obesessed with scott stapp wasnt browsing and was willing to do anything for that picture or else that would have sucked.
