I generally like the pics - car looks great, too, except for the seats...I don't like racing seats...mostly because I haven't found a racing seat I can fit my *** into.

Thanx for the comment people.
Actually, the car is for daily too! haha. but I only drive 6 miles to work.
I also have a set of "daily wheels", will take pics when I have the chance. Trying to break in these falken tires first. Trying to do more track/autox next year.

As of the seats, I wont say they are comfortable (compared to stock), but acceptable. I tried out a few other buckets before buying this set, the Recaro Pole Positions was the most comfortable. Tried out brides, just way too small for my fat ***. :P but they sure look damn nice. :D

Thanx again.

great pics, any chance I could get a better pic of the leather boots on the **** and e-brake handle?

The one of your interior is awesome.

How are your harnesses mounted? Doesn't look like you have a harness bar, if you went straight down just don't get in an accident

I may try and take more pics next week, will try and remember to take some pics of the boots. :D

The harness is bolted to the rear seats buckle point, not straight down.

Hey nice car dude! This is Kenny. The guy you meet at JC auto with the Audi S4 wagon. Just wondering where you bought your seats at. I am planning to get a set before I take my wagon to the track.

"but how did you do you brake handle?"
I think you meant, "how do I like them"?
Im still missing the ebrake adapter from momo. Its not 100% secure, but secure enough.

Im liking my momo interior accessories. :D

Great choice in rims. I may be biased though, because I have them in gunmetal on my blue 8. Your car looks so clean and it would be nice to have a d70 to shoot with.
