It’s a gti. I was told that they had blue seats stock I’m not sure if they were cloth or leather. People are telling me these have been refinished. If that’s the case they will definitely get replaced, they are ugly as hell haha

Looks like they just recovered the factory recaro’s in vinyl. I’d look for an upholstery kit. This is the original upholstery it came with.
