After 2months of waiting, I finally picked up my Bride GIAS. Unfortunately, the rails that goes with it is back ordered as well, that means another 1-2month wait

sorry no pics as of yet, since my photoshop is acting up I cant resize the pics.

Well, if your shop already pre-ordered teh rails for you, you should get it this week or next week. Shipment came in yesterday and thats why I was able to pick my seat up, Bride's warehouse is full

Chargespeed Sport kevlar/FRP-easy on the wallet-more cushion=more comfortable-seats high because of the thick cushions

Bride Pros-not so cheap-not much cushion-not as tight as the zeta-easy to clean leather fabric

Bride Zeta III-expensive-excellent for drifting/auto-x/canyon runs-seats pretty low-not recommended for taller, "thicker" people

Bride GIAS-VERY expensive-not as "tight" as the Zeta III-reclineable-seats very low-not as heavy as the rest of Brides reclinaeble seat since the shell is made out of kevlar.-BLING

Damn. I just can't see the point of $1000+ for A seat. Even if I was loaded, on a street car, that is just ricer.

Ohh, the mystery is killing me. But really, if I had the money and was happy with the rest of the car I would spend as much as I could on a carbon fiber custom made seat. Amazingly, I don't think I will have to make that decision any time soon.
