just keep in mind that you get what you pay for. its very hard to find a cheap seat that is comparable to recaro SRD's

They may look like Recaro's but they will NEVER feel like one.

Recaro actually makes them black with red stitching at a cheaper price due to not being alcantara.

I think the same thing, however most people on hear love Rotas and they are just rip-offs (copies) of more expensive wheels.

Sorry, guess I wasn't clear... The other ones that Recaro makes are cheaper than the JDM ITR/CTR seats but do cost more than eBay seats

I'd rock the **** out of those seats and **** on anyone who wanted to make fun of me for it.

I'll take some supportive seats like those as long as they are safe, and in doing so I'll use the money saved on the seats over Recaros to make my car faster than some kid who buys Recaro seats and breaks the bank in doing so.

I'm sure those seats won't last as long as Recaros, but the way that seats have a tendancy to wear out in certain areas I'd rather have "disposable" seats like those pictured over expensive-*** Recaros.

Yup, couldn't have said it better myself. I'm going to get myself a pair of red "RECARDOS" in the near future for the price of one RECARO. One bad thing I've heard from them is that you have to drill your own holes on the universal sliders.(?) Check out this site "http://www.airdynamicracing.com" for all of your seat knockoff needs.

ROTAS = OK
VISION STYLE AMBERS = OK
SPOON STYLE MIRRORS = OK
SPOON STYLE CF HOOD = OK
RECARDOS = NOT OK?

I don't get it, but to each his own. DWD.
