It cost me I think about 280 for everything, and the dude gave me a roll of the print so I can do other parts of the car in the same stuff. Yeah man I have been wanting to go to meet, when is the next one? You guys should make one in the Gilroy area thats only about an hour and half from my house and it isn't that far for most central cal people.

The reason why it's so cheap is because he only upholstered the middle of stock leather seats. Now if you upholster the whole leather it'll run you alot more.

BTW - I hope you have the wood trim inside painted (black) or film wrapped because if you don't the two-tone with the wood trim won't match, thus looking .

Do you have more pics of you whole car?

what tyoe of seets, the CL-Ps or the CL-S' seets because the CLS is recaros and have alot of support and i was actually thinkin of buying two black CLS seats to match the black interior but i'm not sure how it would look since it would be two differet types of leather. if you have done this or anyone else that has done this, is it possible, will the seats fit good and will they work?

Yea, Custom RSX seats. My friend has them in his RSX. I fell inlove with them the first minute I saw them. Im in the process of getting everything organized and measured using his as a template. Then, either buy these exact ones from him, or buy some RSX seats and get them custom made like his, including wrapping the rear CL seats to match the front RSX seats. If everything goes according to plan, hopefully I will have RSX seats installed with everything custom wrapped within a month...(does this mean I'll be the first 1st Gen with RSX seats??..)

yeah just let me know the guy is here in the central cali it should be around the same ball park for you but he ahs to see the seats first then he can give you a price. the harder the seat is to do the more he is going to charge. He has been doing for like 20 years, but has worked mainly on hot rods and old cars, he can bould youa seat from scratch.

the roads are fine, not too bad. We had a bunch of people riding low with rims as well so if we decide to have a drive on the meet, it'll be along a nice road. Pm spooky3ce, he lives in salinas and he might be comming up I think. He drives a white 1st gen tl

Yea thats the thing...I dont think any RSX seats are powered or heated. My heated seat on the drivers side is broken anyway, so It wont bother me because im not use to having/using a heated seat. Now my girlfriend, she uses the heated seat on the pasenger side all the damn time....she might be a little pissed..lol..

As far as powered...I could live without. I hate when someone else drives my car because they change the seat and I can never get it back exactly where I had it before. (without it being powered, i think it would be easier to move back to my personal spot.) Although I DO like the auto powered forward and backward of our seats when someones getting in back...(maybe the power and heat will just have to be custom...lol...I know the owners of a local bodyshop, they will hook me up hopefully.

Yeah just hit me up about those seats. I have been working on the CL, I have been lookin around the site just never posted. I installed new cross drilled and sloted rotors, a TV screen where the radio was before, and re did the speakers in the back, and upgraded all the highs and mids, oh yeah and painted the calipers red, so it look a little diff than the last pics you seen of it.
