Maybe because they are cloth?

Nice 01, they are getting harder to find in good condition. Is the interior black or tan?

yea they are the black cloth seats out of an altezza. unfortunately they already sold though. but may have a hookup on some black leather ones. currently in the process of debadging the rear, that glue is a PITA to get off lol. selling a set of wheels today so gonna decide what to do with that money...thinking suspension work. and thanks for all the compliments. honestly i like the IS more than i did my SC.

Keep the stock emblem, looks more classy than flat black.

use a heat gun or blow dryer to heat up the glue. then fishing line or dental floss to remove the emblems. once the emblems are off heat up the glue and use a combo of detail spray and some goo gone
