Default Katzkin vs. Recaro

Hey guys...
What are your opinions of the Katzkin kit if you have it in your Honda? Would you rather have gotten a pair of recaros for up front and Type R rear seats, door panels, and arm rest? I can't decide and would like to hear about some firsthand experiences with Katzkin
Thanks

yeah, no reason to compare the two. i guess it really matters on how you have your car setup. you decide. oh by the way, the katskinz are pretty neat. we had them installed in my friends 99 accord and we wrapped the whole interior ourselves to match.

Basically I want to hear from people that actually have the Katzkin leather seat covers installed in their car... do you regret getting them? Any problems? It is a much cheaper alternative to getting Recaro fronts and Type R rears, and they are leather which is nice. Its like comparing GSR leather seats or Katzkin covers for your LS...

seat covers= seat covers= taking off the fabric, leather, etc.. and recovering the seat,
seats= the actual seats- replacing the actual seats

Default Re: Katzkin vs. Recaro (SpoonSportsEH2)

let me put it this way. if you wanna just change your seat covers, get the katskinz-they're are good quality and i believe they have a waranty on them, not sure though.

if you want to completely change the looks of your seats and change them out for a new style, get the recaros, spoon, bride, or whatever you want.

it is hard to compare the two with pros and cons because they are two completely different things.

and let me put it this way too, there are no pros and cons on any of these objects....its just what you want that counts. and im sure you'll be pleased with either choice.
