Not upholstered I found a site in UK that's sells new unused lotus evora seats
And they are cheap 3 colors they have brown grey and oyster white
I always wanted to the oyster in my car
Per seat it's 1170 US dollars not including sliders or mounting brakets or delivery
But u need to custom drill a little bit to accommodate the bmw brakets
If u ok with that then I felt it was a good deal
And then I went to color glo to paint the side doors leather my car was all red before all 4 doors cost me 300 dollars
And the interior trim is REVOzport carbon fiber

Those are the 3 color options they have oyster chestnut and graphite

They sold me 2 sets one came with sliders which fit with little adjustment
To the macht schnell floor brakets and the other passenger seat came with lotus factory sliders which fitted after a little screwing

Compared to bmw performance seats those are a little alive and all leather not heated no air bags so you could die a little faster

If u interested buy the planted floor mounts I feel they will fit better than the macht schnell

Email Kathy she will help sales@thelotuscentre.com

Sorry guys the price was 2340 dollars for both seats with international expedited shipping
It includes the shipping
Email Kathy
Let her send u a picture of the bottom of the seats
The one with the the mounted sliders from lotus and the one without
Bec one of them has this fan with vent and won't fit a bmw at all so it has to come with its own sliders

So for 2340 dollars u will need a lot of screwing/drilling but it will fit amazingly and u would save a lot like I did and then still have money to pre order Tony's turbo and advan RZ wheels with R888
Btw the R888 took 0.3 seconds of my 0 to 60 times
Seriously when it's cold her my car does 3.9 , 4.05 , 4.1 seconds

I got the advanz and toyo's from Sean at vivid racing
And I got the brakets and one pair of sliders from Kevin at europeanautosource
Both guys just made my life easy

Kevin even knows where to code the seats so they don't continuously show the no air bag sign

Car is up and running and on the road. Sounds amazingly mean, and spools just like stock. Took a few logs and Terry is looking them over, if all looks good I will be putting a couple hundred miles on the car to make sure we have no issues and send it back to terry to work his magic. The diverter valve is getting some extra love as people were right in stating there is no vacuum to speak of at idle on these things, so I have to get tricky to get it to work. The upgrades are basically done now and will begin shipping as soon as the diverter valve is solved. Should be early next week. Honestly on the road the turbo response is unreal. The N54 needs one of these...
