I'm after a pair of sparco evo2 plus seats and came across these but that price seems too good for a new pair, and the fia sticker looks unmarked.Do you think they are replicas or genuine? Edit: also, stitching looks a bit dodgy on 6th pic  ________________________________________ Team 'unintentional rat look' |

They look ok to me. Maybe he needs the money sharpish? Exactly how much are they new?I remember buying a Cobra Suzuka back in 2003, Demon theives wanted over £300 per seat, i went direct to the Cobra Factory in Telford, got one for £170. ________________________________________ 1999 Astor Grey GTi-6 OEM+ (now gone...)2004 Aegean Blue 206 GTi 180 (also gone...) 2006 Skoda Fabia vRS in Sprint Yellow honestly3k wrote: Do you wrestle for a living matt?

They look genuine to me. They are an old design though (new design has moved towards a 'split' leg cushion) so I would expect them to be out of FIA date.________________________________________ Rallye-RNurburgring article |

I emailed him and he said they are not fia approved but I could mark it on the sticker myself  Also came across clicky so there are replicas about. Where are people getting new seats from so cheap then? Matt, did you ring the factory or just go in there? ________________________________________ Team 'unintentional rat look' |

Ring the factory, they sometimes have open weekend sales where they get rid of a lot of slightly marked stuff and do good discounts for cash sales as well. ________________________________________ 1999 Astor Grey GTi-6 OEM+ (now gone...)2004 Aegean Blue 206 GTi 180 (also gone...) 2006 Skoda Fabia vRS in Sprint Yellow honestly3k wrote: Do you wrestle for a living matt?

Well I'm 34" waist but 6'4", and thought the extra height on the 2 plus would be better suited.I know its best to try before buying but I don't have a decent place near me to try a selection of seats ________________________________________ Team 'unintentional rat look' |
