We are excited to announce the addition of a new product line available here at Achtuning.

Status Racing currently offers 9 different styles of racing seats to accommodate a variety of driver builds and needs. In addition, customers can choose from Alcantara (suede), leather and cloth in more than 40 colors. Different colors of carbon fiber and Kevlar material are also available. Customization is possible right down to the stitch color. Silver carbon fiber and a darker black kevlar are also available options.

Status Racing's slogan "What's Your Status?" rings true as each customer can design and purchase a unique seat to match their vehicle and personal tastes. Delivery of custom seats takes only 4 weeks via air frieght or 8 weeks via sea freight.

Retail pricing across the Status Racing line is attractive. The entry level fiberglass Monza starts at $495. Status Racing's most expensive seat, the Laguna, in Kevlar and leather, is still only $2,495. Status Racing's combination of extremely high quality products and reasonable prices, attainable by most consumers, ensure success in this competitive market.

Status Racing has raised the bar in racing seat comfort by using Memory Foam in their seats. The Memory Foam seat cushioning literally forms to the user's body to improve fitment, comfort and blood flow. Memory Foam is available as an upgrade on most Status Racing seats. Another Status Racing first is the use of actual carbon-fiber material as upholstery in the high rub/wear areas. The carbon-fiber material is as soft as leather, yet is extremely durable and resistant to wear. Dedicated to raising the bar in safety as well, Status Racing offers two seats that come standard with a removable lateral head support system, keeping drivers safe on the track while being practical for the street.

Status Racing has spent over 2 ½ years designing, researching and testing its products in its own facility in Taiwan, allowing them full control of manufacturing to ensure quality.

Status Racing has so much confidence in their product's quality that they offer a limited lifetime warranty on all shells. FIA testing is currently in progress on most Status Racing seats, and FIA certification is expected no later than December of 2004.

Status Racing is excited to expand their product line in 2005. New Status Racing products debuting next year include a full line of reclining seats, racing harnesses, the first female-specific racing seats, a line of seats for customers with larger seating needs, and "Status Collection" clothing and accessories.

We are releasing our "GT" series. Grand Turing seats will be larger and fit you a lot better than what we currently offer.

also, will you be offering the whole line, or select models? In addition, what is the bracket and bolt up situation going to be like? Just so feeler questions, and when are they going to be in stock.

Thanks
