My seats are currently falling apart and i just moved out and the lame shops around here want like OVER 2-3 grand for JUST the front seats is this normal??

im looking online and could do some racing seats for 700 a pwiece and look way cooler...... any other ideas???

2-3 grand for what - recovering the front seats? For 3k you can get full leather racing buckets from Recaro or Sparco.

Why don't you just get another set of vaders? The best examples should run you no more than 1500 (power,heat, perfect shape).

Car Rule #12581731: Never purchase seats solely because they "look cool".

You spend a lot of time sitting in those seats, so you want to get something that is comfortable. When it comes to cars, you get what you pay for. The reason some seats are so cheap is because the company didn't invest the time or money to make them comfortable.

It sucks, but sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and spend a little extra money. You'll thank yourself later, though.

That's the downside of purchasing something online.

Just remember that you get what you pay for.. A cheap seat is almost always going to end up being uncomfortable; however, that doesn't mean that a Recaro, Bride, or Sparco seat is going to be comfortable simply because it is more expensive.

I'd say your best bet is to go to your local car scene and find some people that have seats that you like and ask if you can sit in their car to get an idea for how the seats feel.
