Status seats look great, any fitment issues Reaper with closing the door anything?
Yea, they are the GT version, which have wider shoulder span for "americans". So they do hit the door when closing, the material in the door is soft tho, so it makes a little indent into the door, but I have had them for a year, and NO wear or tear on the actual leather of the seat where it is touching. Infact this seat has held up VERY well, still looks brand new. I will try and take some new pics with a better camera sometime soon. I did have some issues dealing with the rep over at STATUS, (not everyone can be as awesome as Tony@ Fast Intentions) so if your willing to deal with that then these seats are an AWESOME buy. If you are over 6' , 230 lbs tho, these seats are not for you. Im sure if the floor brackets were better made, and you have them professionally installed by a dealer who deals with STATUS, then you will prob have better fitment into the car. Price wise, for the seat, floor brackets, sliders, and 5 point harness, plus shipping, your looking at paying just shy of $2000 a seat, which is actually cheaper than buying most Brides. The BEST part about buying for STATUS is the personal customization, first you pick between a FRP, Kevlar, or Carbon Fiber shell, which all differ about $100 in price, and then from there you have complete customization of your seat with no extra charge. You pick whether you want it in leather, alcantara, or cloth, the seat inserts you can pick in either of the three, seperate from the rest of the seat, they have hundreds of colors to choose from, and then you get to pick the color of the stiching, as well as the color of the status emblem embroidary, and in leather you can have the logo punched into the leather for a more subtle stealthy look. I highly recommend these seats.
