I bought a pair of Recaro front seats (cloth) from a member here which were originally oem from a Mk5 R32. I sourced some GTI Interlagos and had a professional reupholster them. So, apart from the .:R logo (which I'm totally happy about) they look the same as the oem factory option - Except for carbon vinyl backs. Total cost about Â£1,400.

They be as rare as rockin horse poo though.
