Avoid Sparco.
I bought new Sparco seats 3 years ago for my gts which are bright red. I ordered a replacement seat cushion set and now they have changed the bright red to a wine red which obviously does not match the rest of the seat. Another marketing scam to get the customer to buy an entire new seat or at least have to re-cover the entire seats to match. Salesman did not bother to tell me this before I ordered and it should also be posted as a warning on the Sparco usa web site. He also told me it takes 8 freakin weeks if I wanted to order 2 full seat cover sets.

Re: Avoid Sparco.
3 years is a long time, I don't know why the hostility. Even automobile manufacturers change their colors every year. I would never expect an exact color match on cloth fabric or leather especially after 3 years. And how would the salesman know about a possible color change years down the road?

Re: Avoid Sparco.
Race car or a poser car? Sparco is a quality brand and I couldn't care less what color their seats were.

Re: Avoid Sparco.
What style (name) of Sparco seats are yours? Do they fit properly in the car without modifications?
