Just thought I would write a good news follow up. Well OSAKA finally pulled through. It took them about 5 months but they finally arrived. I finally just called the shop instead of the guy I bought them off of. There was a man by the name of John who was such a big help. Much thanks to him for helping me out. They are in great shape. No rips, tears, cig burns, nothing. A little dirty, but I'm planning on having them perfessionally cleaned before I put them in. Hopefully that will make them 100% mint. Has anyone done this and knows how much it costs off hand? And lastly, I have never installed seats. I can't imagine it being a tough thing, but how much time am I looking at?

Yea, I'm having difficulty putting the pics in. I really have no idea how I did it before. I'm trying to use Iserve but my luck can only go so far. It was wasted on the seats today.

Yellow JDM ITR's had the choice of yellow or black Recaros, all other JDM ITR's had the choice of black or red Recaros. Non-ITR's did not come with Recaros.
It was actually hard to find a car with the black Recaros. Red seems to be far more common.

Nice seats
I had blacks and then traded for some reds plus cash. The blacks match the interior perfectly and are a little bit more rare I think.

Thank you everyone for your kind words. I have been eyeing up these seats now for the last 6 months haha. I will try to take some shots once I get the seats actually in the car (whenever I actually can find some time). I don't have the jdm center console eliminator so I"m not sure how it's going to turn out. If there isn't enough room, looks like I'll be spending another 100 bucks. The car is a gd money pitt, but well worth it!

I'd have to agree. It took me forever and a day to find my black ones. Though when I did....the shipper only had one set of blacks and 5 sets of reds.

Nah, don't sweat it. You can keep the center console, it just makes it a little harder to get to the seat-back adjustment ****. And if you DO want to go with the armrest-eliminator, dont spend over 35 for it.

I agree that the blacks are a little more rare especially in good condition. I currently have the reds in but would like the black instead. Regardless I love the seats and am happy with the way they feel and the comfort they provide.
