Hello all

a few months ago i bought some second hand audi S3 bucket seats for my R. I then moved them on to Phil at plush automotive where he re-trimmed them in black alcantara with some custom blue stitching and some other little details. Fitted them into the car a few weeks ago, was literally a direct fit did not have to do any fabricating or adjustments.
I've gone for a full black alcantara as well as on the backs.

let me know what you all think!

Like the finish on them, are the harnesses the ones that fit on the belt points

The seats cost me £1800 in not the best condition.

The re-trim cost a further £2000 to have the front and backs of the seats completely re-done in alcantara with the custom stitching.

Wouldn't do the harnesses at all. Just don't go for me.

But I like the seats.

Don't like the price.

Love that it's unique to you.

personally not a huge fan of the harnesses myself, but they really are a huge improvement with fast road use, don't roll around the seat like the car is throwing me around. allows me to be still and can concentrate on driving more! shame that they are such an eye-saw
