Default Seats, vote please

Which do you like better for a 2003 black on black mustang with black interior.

1) http://seiboncarbon.com/pdut_detail_pic.asp?ItemID=529

2) http://seiboncarbon.com/pdut_detail_pic.asp?ItemID=624

Or each in red

1 red) http://seiboncarbon.com/pdut_detail_pic.asp?ItemID=528

2 red) http://seiboncarbon.com/pdut_detail_pic.asp?ItemID=723

Im goin with seibon because i can get it cheap

Seat number 2 looks a bit big at the top for a tiny mustang, but it looks soo much more comfortable. and if i wasnt taking out the back seat itd prob be annoying to the people in back, but thats not a worry.

Honestly, i hate the seats i have now. They are unhorribly comfortable, and the leather...with no holes in the back to let your back breath, makes me sweat after like 3 mins of driving. Ya its my daily driver, but these are alot lighter. And even though its my dd, im trying to make this thing go, so every pound counts. Im ggetting stoptech brakes before i even buy seats, but im looking now cuz it wont be far off.

The seats are pretty ugly. They kinda look like ricer seats... but, I say, if you're gunna get one, get #1. The second one is extremely ugly, and the red is HORRIFYING.

those seats will probably be way worse. theyare going to wrap around your body more so your stuck in the seat a lot more. i bet its hotter. that and i bet they look like sh*t in anything but a race car.

Not exacty holes, but the newer leather has pinholes, like tiny mesh to let your back breath. They may look ricer but they are an extremely well known company and i wouldnt get the seats if they were crap. They retail for anywhere between 600-700 for the first one, and i can get maybe 40% off any of their products.

And i refuse to use the word ricer to ever describe anything, but people would say that about any racing seat now adays. The leather racing seats i want go for about 1300 each, and if i decide to spend 3000 on seats, it wont be any time soon.

Oh well. If anyone else has suggestions for other seats, i want something lighter. Then i can sell my whole interior as a set. But like i said, im getting big brakes first, s o iit might be a hot second before i get seats at all. And i plan on making this somewhat a race car, the skys the limit and im shooting for at least a 12 second quarter mile over the next 3 years of modding my car. Iv only been putting stuff into my car for a little under 8 months now. And i like the fact that the seats wrap around you and hug you tighter, it would make me feel alot saffer and more comfortable. Number one deffinitally seems apealing seeing as its not horrible looking and its cheap.

edit: i realize this is a kind of large goal to achieve considering im gunna be swapping out major components like transmissions and such (hopefully next year), but considering i have another year in highschool and my college is pretty much taken care off, i have a good chance with the cash i make, the people i know, and absolutly zero outside costs to pay for.

If you want that, you should consider selling your car and buying a GT. A 95 5.0 would be nice. A 5.0 Fox with 2K into it can easily pull 13's.
