Default need help just bought used car.

hi,

my brother just bought a used stock prelude 96 70k miles on it $8,000 (is that a good deal?) but the tan leather seats that came on it are all totally messed. there should be a recall for this thing. anyways, i'm looking to buy front and back seats for this car but don't know where to begin.. like how much, and if there are alternatives to this. whether other seats from other model hondas will fit? what would be the best thing to do? any suggestions greatly appreciated~!!

btw, the interior coloer is black and tan whereas the exterior is dark green if that helps any.

recaros is awesome, or something close to them. Go to a local performance shop or the net and see what options you have. I have a 5th gen, but when i see a 4th gen with those seats, damn, i wish i had one

Hey man, your best best is aftermarket seats, cheaper than new stock seats (i think) and they look and perform way better. I can vouch for emoBB1, I have seen his seats in person and they look flawless.
