hello mate
the seats are about £400 each depending on which material thare made out of.mine are fiberglass/carbon fiber mix and are the cheapest the top of the range carbon/kevlar ones are about £750 each.

That is an awesome bug !

I can't believe all the bodywork you did, that is truly amazing !
Nice wheels too, what are they and what's the size ?

What type of shifter do you have in there ?
Did you put in those boxed sections besides the transmission 'hole' ?

The car looks awesome, although those seat mounts don't look
too sturdy

How expensive was that cage by the way ? I checked their website and it looks they only have one for the Super....

Rob.
