    E36 M3 Coupe Black "Rain" Vaders Manual

    Selling manual black "rain" vaders for E36 coupe. I love the seats and the attention they grabbed at car meets, but I'm converting the car to a track car and I need buckets. The only two holes are on the side bolsters of the driver seat, and I was quoted $150 to have them fixed by one of the more expensive upholstery places around here (so you might be able to get it done for less). I just don't have the time to get it done.

    These seats are truly rare, especially in black.

    Everything is functional. These seats are valuable due to the cloth patter which is almost impossible to obtain now. Any wear on the alcantara can be fixed, it's simple anthracite alcantara. I'm sure these could be bought and resold for much more (I've seen them go for 3k+) but I don't have the time.

    I'm looking to get $900 out of them. Message me if interested.

    Bump for a fellow hurricane vader owner.
    My driver side bolster had the same issue, although not as bad. I purchased the correct alcantara from gulf fabrics for $110 (1 yard), and have been quoted $300 to fix and repair the foam. Not a cheap fix, but definitely worth it for these seats.

    Mine have minimal foam damage, that's why I was only quoted $150. Definitely awesome seats!

    Ah! I wish you'd posted last month! I already bought the replacement seats.
