Hey all, been hanging around here the past couple of months & noticed alot of the Gris owners have the backs of their seats painted to match the car. I was wondering if anyone has done this mod on a T350, I would like it done in the summer time, how much work is it and how much will it cost roughly in Spectraflair Silver. Thanks

Also if you have any pictures of yours please post them here

It is also an option on the T350/Tamora.

Had mine done on the Tam last year. You need to take seat out, remove the four bolts in the back of the seat and the edging trim betwean the leather and seat back. Body shop can then spray up to leather, when you put edging trim back in it will hide the paint join. Mine cost me £150 in Formula red.

Have them on my tamora. I must say they do add to the look in my opinion!

Out of interest, has anyone actually scratched their seat backs by forgetting to move the seat forward when lowering the rear screen? The rear struts seem to get mightely close to them!

I believe that some Tams had their alloy roof struts fitted upside down, this means that if the seat is too close it not only rubs on the back of the seat, but the sharp end of the alloy joint scratches the paint off???
