Racing Beat seat cover in briar brown

I got a seat cover set in briar brown with perforated black. Here it is compared to the original black/velour:





Another user's thread shows installation

Mine went about the same way, though I wish I did it outside. Crusty, 30+ year old foam makes a lot of dust.

Lookin good. These RB seat re-upholstery kits are good quality. Some of those wrinkles will go away once they sit in the car and get heat cycled a few times.

I have a how to thread here as well: https://www.rx7club.com/1st-generati...y-kit-1071159/

I had RB do a custom color combination for me, and they were able to also sell me additional matching cloth so I could redo the rest of the interior.

Top quality. Still gorgeous.
