I want the seats and steering wheel from the blue series
 
So i have a 10 series frs, and i have alot of blue in my car. The red seats just dont look right in the var since its the only thing that is red. I have the raceseng pulley kit in blue, blue intercooler piping, blue interior trim, the car itself has a blue hughe, a blue shift knob, and so on... So what im getting at is i want to get it but idk how, anyone wanna help?

trade in your frs for a brz blue series

Wear a ski mask, bring a crowbar and a wrench.

1. Put on ski mask.
2. Drive to subaru dealership.
3. Smash window.
4. Take out seats.
5. Profit.

it has "BRZ" on the seats. Best bet is to find someone who buys the blue series, and swaps in aftermarket seats/steering wheel. Only problem with that is I feel many people who buy the blue series wont mod a lot of the "blue series" pieces that they paid a premium for. Or, if they do they're gonna think their "blue series" parts are worth more than you want to pay. But it never hurts to put up a "WTB" in the wtb section of the "for sale"

Here's a pic if people are wondering about the seats though.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought you need a VIN # to order parts directly from the dealer since they're a specific model. Kind of like how people want to order the lip kit off the FR-S RS 1.0. My advice would be to find somebody you know who has a blue series and use them as an intermediary to order the parts for you with their VIN. That or just go aftermarket because there's plenty of options that are same quality if not better!

also, it might just be cheaper to go to an upholstery shop and have them swap in blue for the red on the seats.

I still don't get why they put red on all the seats(for regular models). Color specific seats would've been cool.

give me $30k and ill make it happen for you

Lol @BRGT86 let me get right on that, @fitcious i love my 10 series i just want the seats to match the rest of the car and not have the dumb red on them, and @Shutter if i go to an upholstry shop i will just have them redo all the stitching in the car to match it too

perfect haha, have them take care of it when stitching in the blue patches. Although, I haven't looked at my stitching lately, but you might be able to stitch blue thread yourself, and then cutout/pull the red thread.

I did something similar with the parking brake boot, I just re-threaded red where the old black thread was.

Or try fabric dye?

I like what they did with th RS seats just wish they would color match with the car as you said, but getting the 10 series color as stitching and partial seat color would be tough... but OMG it would look so good haha

You have to go thru all that bull$#it if you want to order specific model parts from TOYOTA dealer if they don't match your vin. If you go to a Subaru dealer with the part numbers, you can just order the parts. :bonk:

I am sure you can order any part you want without a VIN.

I would love to get a set of those for my GBS BRZ!!
I wonder how much the factory price is for the pair.
WAG = $1000 each

Wait why don't you just get nice suede and leather seat covers in a custom color... Katzkin or these:http://www.guerillaracing.com/clazzi...ion-fr-s-2013/
