Subtlety is for spreadsheets.

Motorsport has never been about blending in. Liveries are wild, decals are everywhere, and even the pit garages are colour-coded. So why are so many cockpits stuck in grey-on-grey?

Red race seats are coming back in a big way, and for good reason:

They stand out in photos and video
They scream purpose and performance
They elevate even the simplest interior into something memorable
They’re a subtle nod to touring car, WRC, and JDM racing culture

From classic hot hatches to GT builds, the red seat is a power move—and it’s one that more and more drivers are making.

Ricky Atom is making that statement in his recent build below – CIVIC TYPE R FD2 (JDM IMPORT)

Red Isn’t Just Red

Let’s get technical for a second. “Red” isn’t one shade—and we know that.

Depending on your build, we can match or contrast to:

Factory red interior stitching
Roll cage paintwork
Harness colours
Exterior accents or livery design

Want bright and bold? We’ve got it. Prefer a deep blood red with black piping? Done. We’ve even built two-tone seats with red centres and black bolsters for that retro rally car feel.
