    Does any supplier still do the red fabric cover which also has the Ferrari Chellenge logo on?

    Since my car has the White speedline challenge wheels I think I shall install the pair of challenge seats on. Just like this one.
    Make it kind of a bit special...

    You'll have to get someone to embroider the Ferrari Challenge script on the covers. A good car interior shop can do it.

    Thanks. That second seat is mine.

    Both OMP seats are in my car. I took that picture when my driver's seat was out while I was having a slider installed.

    I have red Nomex seat covers protecting the Challenge seats. You can see how they are secured in the interior picture I posted of my F355 Challenge.

    Take a pic of the homologation sticker, I think those may be 360C seats...

    I found a pair of 348 Challenge (Kevlar) seats some time back but, wanted more of the F355 Challenge look (OMP Black Carbon Fiber). Never could find a NOS set, only one seat here and another there but, all beaten up however. Time to make the jump and just get a new set of Sparco Evo which is the closest thing to the OMP Vid.

    Sparco USA

    Red of course! (Getting ready for Forza Challenge DE)

    PS. I think the 360 Challenge (Style) seats would be an akward fit in the 355? I like the Corsa as well.

    Ciao,

    They look OK in there. They're similar to the VID Carbon...

    That looks like the stock challenge cage which bolts in once you have the mounts welded in, iirc.

    Yes, that's a Challenge cage. Weld mount pads (6) then bolt in. Weld in harness mounts too.
