    Corbeau UK Factory visit- Hastings with pics

    Inclusive of vat, between 400 n 600 to be honest. Even entry seats start round 250 with side mounts. Depends what you want obvs. That dont include the mounting sub frame, just side mounts and seat. Then theres all the bespoke extras embroidery, lumbar supports etc etc

    Yes, in the brochure. Dont want the head protection aspect for mine, as using on the road for the next year anyways. Just a bit more pricey than mine, not much in it.

    Ultimate’s 172 Show Car Project Thread Hydrodipped and Vinyl Wrapped.

    Ive always found it difficult to remove masking tape and paper when plastidip is applied, as the plastidip goes off after about a minute and when you peel the masking tape/paper back off, some of the plastidip goes with it small area at a time i guess
