Default upholstering Type R seats...

i got a 99 clover green LS...with the uglee *** tan/ivory cloth interior..i like the bucket feel of type R seats...but the black and red stitching would not look nice in my car...so i was wondering if it was possible to re-upholstering (spelling?) the seats to match the seats i got now with the ivory/tan cloth...?? i think that would be cheaper then buyin some 400 seats..and i wouldnt get as many looks cause they wouldnt stand out..thanks

yup, that's what i was thinking. the itr seats is already gonna cost you $400 already, if not more. then you are going to spend BIG bucks for the upholstering! imo...not worth it.

buy some gsr or ls cloth seats and rip them apart...close to the same seat as the itr's, just diff. material.

I heard different year integras had different size bolsters... so you may look into that... before you go ahead and ruin a good set of ITR seats.

get the LS tan leather ....or get GSR all black .....or take a sharpie and colour all the seams on the R seats to black
...black and tan goes no problem .......better yet, leave em black and red!!!!!!!!!

just re-upholster the seats you have in your car now....or go to a junkyard and pick up some cheap integra seats and do it to them
