Default Arena Red Owners: Burgundy Seat Belts at Half Off!

I just had the OEM seatbelts from my 993 re-webbed by Safety Restore at the cost of $500. They even reused the original labels from Porsche.

I have since decided to go in a different direction with the car and prefer not to use the burgundy belts.

If you would like to upgrade the look of your interior you can have mine for $200 + your original belts. I’ll ship my belts to you and after you install them you can ship your black ones to me.

PM if interested. Thanks!

THE SEAT BELTS HAVE FOUND A NEW HOME!

I'd be interested in these if I didn't have to do a core exchange, since they'd go into my parts bin until needed someday when I do the interior project.

Can't believe someone didn't ****** these right up. $200 + core is a great deal.

Free bump.

Think they'd spruce up a black interior too BUT, not original so you'd want the originals in case you want to sell.

Wow you guys pay exorbitant prices in the US. I had mine all re webbed (including Porsche labels etc) and including extending the rears by 50cm (baby seat stuff), all for 140gbp including shipping. The quality was superb too.

this is why idiots like that Olsen guy on IG have the audacity to go on rants about how him charging 200-300k for minor restoration work is ok…you guys pay

Yeah, but you guys pay almost twice as much for petrol as we do, so HAH!

He never said $200-300k for "minor restoration". He gave an example where he said "light restoration" which after his description a few seconds later, it is not "light" at all. It's just not a "full" restoration because he said it did not include interior. He stated "on a hundred and a half" (150k) they would do full chassis, paint/body, all seals, all suspension ...AND motor build. No interior. Not exactly "light"? He then gave another example where for 3-350k they would do a full "OE nuts/bolts" restoration. Which means every single bit of the car is replaced/restored to original.

I wouldn't say he went on a rant either. The only rant was from folks who commented on his video and have no idea of what the parts + labor adds up to. I'm $50K into my build and have done all the work myself. I didn't pay MSRP on a single part either. If I had to pay labor, I'd be well north of $100k and I'm not doing an engine build. So his comments are within the realm of reason, IMHO.

Huge Thank you to ilco for sending the belts to me, just got them today. I need to get mine swapped out so he is not waiting for my belts.
