Default Painted lotus seats

Saw this on another bloggers site:

Lotus elise seats painted white and mounted on custom brackets | Simplystance.com

Really cool, thinking this would be a nice addition in the future. I'm running a set of Elise seats, they are fiberglass non-adjustable buckets with the material basically on one side only, even in the Miata you can see a good bit of the color from outside the car. Would make a nice offset. Just posting up some of my ideas, I have a lot of updates to do on the car soon, but waiting on paint/powdercoat to come back finished. Really exciting stuff.

Probably body color, but not sure. Would look cool with a painted rollbar, but I think the grey seats on the interior would look fine as well. I've been painting tons of parts this burnt orange color, and all the subframe is a burnt orange Powder coat as well. So maybe that. haven't decided yet.
