PRP's Premier lowback seat looks to be a nice seat. I plan on purchasing a pair ASAP. Image http://prpseats.com/suspension-seats.html

i have the premier low backs , but wuth the headrest. i like the look alot. but the beards are more comfy. i also had to cut the sliders in half to get my head below the windshield.i'm 6 ft but my windshield's a little more laid back than many.

The Volks World July 05 orange Manx is nice! I'm borrowing a few elements from it and the October 03 Volks World black Manx you did Mel. Too bad i can't post pics of them.

The diamond pattern covers seem more popular. She did make em in metalflake materials,, but that stuff is hard to get hold of now.. That industrial sewing machine was the best Christmas present I ever bought my wife (xmas 99),,,,,,,good job it was heavy :laugh1:
