Hey guys, I just put a major rip in my front seat (05 rs), and I was wondering what my options were. If I need to buy new seats, does anyone have an idea of who I could contact. I'm lost as far as what I can do, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

could also possibly have it fixed by upholstery place, just a suggestion, have no idea how much it would cost.
That was my initial thought too, just haven't been able to hit on anything yet.
I'm waiting to hear back from a local auto upholstery repair shop now. I'm envisioning it being pretty expensive, but I have no clue either. We'll see!
Thanks again guys.
That's what I was thinking...if its a rip in just one section, that's only one piece that'd need to be cut out and a new piece sewn in.
Or take a look on Ebay...always a ton of seats chillin around there. You can find 04-07 STI seats for as cheap as $250 a pair these days.

^ Yea, if you have a few extra bucks laying around, why not upgrade to some STi seats.
Flaming blue seat covers FTW.
