I was going to purchase a pair of racing seats, not sure which brand yet. I want to get Sparco Torinos but might have to settle for Corbeau CR1s cuz I'm on a tight budget right now. Both have mounting brackets made for the new celicas. Now I was wondering which color should I get for my Spec Blue Celica. Would red seats look cool or just throw everything off? Should I get the seats in blue to match the color of my car? Or black seats to match some interior black parts? And also any ideas on what color harness should I get to go with the seat and car?

Thanks!:)

Sup Christian!! I wouldn't do the red with your car... maybe blue if anything. Black would be a little more subtle... but blue would have a nicer effect.

I'd have to vote for black harnesses as well.

It depends. if you want attention go with Blue as that is not a normal seat color. if you want to be low key then black is the way to go. Red is not a choice i would pick but its your call.

the civic type r actually comes with red recaros but if i were to get them for my Si, I would still go with black. id have to get red carpet and door trim to match the seats.

go black.

ok I definitly won't go with red then cuz I don't want it to throw everything off.;) I'll go look for some blue seats. I haven't found anyone to purchase it from yet in particular but I've just been surfing online and checking prices from online distributors of Sparco and Corbeau in the mainland. Just wondering is Corbeau a respectable brand cuz I was looking for a respectable brand and something economical:)
thanks!
