Nismo Racing Seats?

As I was looking for 350Z seats I stumbled upon these nismo racing seats. Since finding stock 350 seats is about as rare as finding a Lambroghini in front of a Vons I was wondering if these are okay or just trash?

Yah, $85 for a pair of "racing seats" sounds too good to be true. They had to of cut some corners when making those...

They may look okay, but they are PVC "leather" which isn't real leather, plus it's $145 for shipping. I think they are making more off the shipping charges then they are from the seats.

1. PVC Leather = Vinyl
2. Racing seats do not use either vinyl or leather
3. If they were real Nismo, they'd be going for about $1k each...

junk junk junk junk

and they're ugly as sin.

I would retro Z seats but they are so damn rare to find that I was just trying to find something else decent that would do the job.
