Default Poll: Seats... My current Status Rings in Leather and Kevlar or Stock and buy one cheaper seat?

Here is the deal, I absolutly love my Status seats as i am sure people can see from how hard I pimp them on here. yet fact remains I am not exactly "ballar status" anymore in finacial terms and riding around in almost $6k worth of seats seams just stupid when when my checking account commonly dips into the three digit range. So i thought about selling the Rings and just having the stockers in there. then buying a seat like a fiberglass Recaro or even a cheaper status seat for going to the track. i always feel it looks kinda ghetto to just have a drivers seat. yet thats all i need. then maybe latter on i can save up for a match.


so what say ye forum? sacrifice baller seats that i love for bland OEM?

for the record i survive just fine. i stick about 200-300 bucks each month away for just random stuff beyond my normal savings and then obviously living. i am just still a little tapped out from spending nearly $8k moving and could use some more padding for the unexpected you know.


the hotness i would be giving up aside from the paint they really do set my car apart from the rest IMHO....

Default it's all about priorities, my priority would be keeping those seats...

But, if you need themoney for other stuff so be it.

I don't mean to sound like a mother, but I did it anyway!!

If I had some cash right now, I would take those off of you in a heartbeat...
