Again, good find.

You should ask your friend to check out the IX GT seats also, I'm telling you those are beautiful. I would love to have red stitching on my seats, but at least I got the seats so I can't complaint

Well I got a spare just in case... and benefits are a little more boost, and the turbo can be heard now, pretty nice

Go to your 06 mr seats and look at them closely (take a pic if you can) then compare to the JDM, they are different. And the JDM one feels different also, it's smaller, has raised side leg bolsters, and the shoulder, kidney area is tighter.

Haven't seen that scoop, do you have a pic or link to it? The point is it does suck in more air, although some may argue it is hot air from the engine bay, I don't think that would happen at high moving speeds....another cool side effect is that I can hear the turbo sucking the air in, and the DV venting in a nice, discrete way
