are you joking? mate, my dad does it for a living, and the ONLY seats he recommends are recaro or bride. if you said sparco to him, he'd laugh in your face, seriously. alot of old recaro recaros will need repairing, ofcourse they will, because the material is like, 10+ years old (and is only a fine cloth to begin with, to aid fabric breathing etc), they're definately the finest though, especially if you get comparing them to other seats. sparco, corbeau, cobra, rage etc etc, all absolute shite (he's had them all apart, so knows what he's talking about). rs turbos are old, so as above, thats why the seats will have degraded, any seat will after use when they're old. you chuffing goober.
