Am I seeing that right? Looks like you car might have been Brave Blue then painted red?

The seats look good BTW
How do they feel? Comfortable?

yes it used to be blue but i painted it red i really wish i didnt but it will be blue again. the only reason the seats are tan because i got them for free, and it is really not that much work.if your buff like me

I think that is Sapphire Blue. Code 5A or A5. I have the same color.

Seats look really good though.

I dont think rx-8 seats fit into an FC. Something about the bolsters sticking out too wide.

Well I'm not saying it's not possible but if you really wanted to do it I guess you can. Just depends on money/skill. I wish someone would prove me wrong haha.
