I'm always a fan of both bonuses, but if I remember correctly, the owner's manual says that even adding seat covers can screw with the collision safety mechanisms.

Depends on what you're looking for. High end street seats have better ergonomics, but not necessarily less weight (these are +15lbs total for the pair). The stock seats are not very heavily constructed though..
Race seats have less weight, but are a PITA to use as a street seat and usually have no adjustability for lumbar, rake, backrest angle etc..
If you're at all squeamish about losing your seat mounted side airbags you should pass on this..
