I have them too....half leather half alcantara, soon to be joining Al with full leather if I keep the car!

Mine also have the R logo in a GTI  :signLOL:


....I much prefer alcantara (or cloth) to leather seats.

Have you got pics of your alcantara .:R Recaros?

Theres some pics on my build thread, they're chris peacocks old ones from his green mk5, I do like the alcantara but its in a very light colour so very difficult to keep clean! If the car stays im either going to trim the centres in the same material as edition 30 centres or just full leather them.

S3 or an RS3 is looking very tempting though!

^^^^
:happy2: I'll check out your build thread.

Please don't mention the RS3 - I'm trying to resist the temptation! Though fortunately the money isn't quickly available.

....I can't tell what's written in red nor its quality  :confused:

What's the story with the red 'logotype' please?
