Default Nrg Frp fixed bucket seats?

I am wondering if anyone is running the nrg Frp fixed bucket seats in their ek? I have found limited reviews on a few other forums and the general consensus is that the carbon fibre ones are good bang for the buck. My main concern if anyone has fitted any into their civics and especially if they were the large version? I want to make sure that they will fit before ordering. I have very limited access to trying any seats before I buy due to my location and lack of performance shops with seats in stock.
I am looking to upgrade from the cdm itr seats I have in my street car as I am planning to run 5 pt harness' next year since I have a rollcage going in. I am a larger lad at 6ft 2inches and weight 235 lbs and I have approx 38" waste...so with that I am limited to what seats my fat *** fits into...I would love a sparco evo2 plus but that is just not in my price range...my other option is a kirkey full containment seat, advantage to this is that the factory is less than an hour from my place so a custom seat is affordable and easy to get. I know that you get what you pay for with seats but as I said before the nrg fixed bucket seats seem to be the better of the budget seats from what I have read so far

There are two things you should NEVER cheap out on, and those are safety equipment, and tires. Cheap seats are just begging to kill yourself if something goes wrong.

NAR is right. Don't be cheap on a seat which is supposed to protect you.

Buddy Clubs are low on cost, Can always look for Recaros that come from EVO's. Thats what I have in one of my cars.

Where are you located?
