Thanks,
Yes, the base are "regular" Sparco.
I felt they were good, but did not liked the material that much (the "touch").
I do like Alcantara.
I got the "Boxster S" stitched on an Alcantara panel, and then asked to have "diamond" stitches below the logo.
In the bottom front part, I asked to have it split in two parts (original was on one part) in order to have the 5th and 6th point of the harness to be able to go through.
Btw, all the original "center cushions" are fixed to the bucket using "Velcro", so, I just ordered (to a local car upholstery company) to use the same for these new cushions !
Pretty basic work !
Imo the "original" Sparco stitching is not so "elegant" ! (kind of "cheap ad" instead of discrete branding !)

Note that the result is quite "comfy" !
