In regards to your suggestion; the bottom of the seat is fine. It's really more around the kidney area that's too tight. I could put something in on the back except that I need to bolsters when I take the car to the track, and being 6'2" there's not a lot of additional space for me in this thing (especially with the helmet on).

I'm probably either going to swap the seats with someone (seriously, they're significantly narrower than any others I've sat in) or do what this guy did and try bending the loops:

If it is that easy to bend there is always a chance someone bent them the other way. I bet if you placed your feet on the floor and rolled your back you could make the seat more to your liking without having to fuss with digging through all that material.

Or you could use it to get an FIA approved carbon fiber seat. For safety.
