Thanks! As you can probably tell, I'm going for a red with black theme. And yes, the PORSCHE decal is too high, I trusted Google without verifying. It's fine for now, if/when it gets messed up, I'll get a new one and put it lower.

You put a red seatbelt and a sofa in? :D

Does this improve driving position or comfort or?

For me, I would still like to have some seats with my bum down by an inch or two....

I like the seatbelt--just need to do the passenger as well.
My question is why it seems to sit like a 4x4?

This seat sits at least 1 inch, if not more, lower than stock, and the side bolsters are higher and stiffer than stock. All in all worth it, in my opinion. I guess the purists are all bent out of shape though.

It does look high, it's on stock springs on Koni Special Actives with Cayman wheels. Not sure why it looks high, I think it's the 18 inch wheels and tires.

Both seatbelts are red, and I am in the process of mounting the passenger seat.
