GT3 Seats / B&M Undercar Installed! Lucent once again...

Yet another post about the incredible quality of product/service from Lucent...Arling special ordered my GT3 seats for me (Graphite Grey) - I was expecting a VERY long wait, but less than 3 weeks later, they're arrived!

I think Kirby described them best when he said "They feel like Adult Child seats" LOL - very supportive!

Also had them install a B&M Undercar Shiftkit (Thanks Joe!) - the shifter feels SOOO much better, and thanks to both Joe and Kirby for convincing me to stay late despite the traffic to get it installed. (Only took about an hour and a half to get home surprisingly, but then again - I was following Joe who was using the truck route LOL)

BTW, you know your shop is cool when people like Cort Wagner come around to say hello!

Thanks once again to Arling/Tom and the team at Lucent Motors...

Side by Side seat comparison...

Damn the stock seats are HEAVY!! I could lift the GT3's with one hand....the stocks, well - I'd say they're at least 30 lbs heavier...

How much were the seats?

I have been debating purchasing a pair of graphite seats as well.

Nice seats dude.

I have to admit, I do miss the black GT3 seats I had in my E46 M3. Some say I should have kept them (probably should have), but after sitting in those seats for 2+ years, a part of me was looking forward to sitting in a cush luxury seat again.....those GT3 seats were light as hell.....

haha. LOL!

Looking good Albert...as always....

Dang Kirb...so brutal! Guy just spent some dough on seats and a short shifter no less than 24hrs ago and he's being egged on to dress up the interior now.

Brutal, but I like your style!
