Tim:

One other possibility to consider: Use the ERA FIA seats that come with your roller---with a twist: take off the vinyl and have them reupholstered.

I used mine for a year, and now that my Cobra is getting painted and I have the seats out I'm getting them reupholstered in black leather with French seams (stitching straddling the seams, with no piping). Cost is $250 per seat, which is much cheaper than buying a Kirkey aluminum seat ($250?) and then having them upholstered ($?).

I'll post some pictures once I get my seats back. I'm also having some padding added to the back and putting in a firmer pad for the seat.
