I just came back from ENSENADA, bAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO I when to some upholstery shop and asked how much would they charge me to re-upholster my 2 front seats and the rear seat for the 240sx, he said $150 dollars for all. I dunno if I should have it done the price is cheap but i checked out some other seat he was working on and it look good so I might have him do my seats. IT will take him a week but since i got some extra seats i car take those to him no down time on the car. I dunno if i should do all black vinyl, or black vinyl with black cloth, or white vinyl and black vinyl conbination. As for now my cars interior is black with white door panels and white globe box and roof. but it get dirty quik so might do all black seats.............what do you guys think about that fake carbon fiber vinyl................my car is going to be painted white

Your *** will stick to vinyl seats in the summer and you'll slide around on the seats in winter due to the crappy bolstering on 240SX seats. Besides, I think vinyl seats went out of style in the early 80's. My mom's old K-car had 'em.

Go with some nice black cloth inserts at least. IMO, fake carbon fiber is kind of tacky. It's all personal opinion though; I prefer a more spartan, OEM look for my interior stuff.

The stock ones, or better yet some s14 seats. they fit in there perfectly and are a little bit more comfortable, in my opinion anyways.
