what kind of seat covers are you looking for? AXS ones?

depends how your rear seat is made you can buy all different rear seat covers from axs...eg small ones for small cars, medium ones and then large ones for fords and holdens.
CHEAP white ones. Where/what is axs?

axs is like one of the best brands for seat covers you can get their a rip off in the stores but...they are like 100 bucks for 2 fronts and 110 for a rear..

my advice get on ebay the axs company sells on their but at really low prices...you can liek match your seat covers with the colour of your car if you want...

theirs all custom seat covers aswell...

It's the best brand for seat covers?
I dont understand why both your seat covers (in this prelude and the mx6) that they look like bedsheet covers.... like someone else said, it looks like you need more seat to fill them up..

If you can get so many different sizes, have you tried buying a smaller size maybe? Even my bf's cheapo Batman ones ($20) fit wayyyyy better than your customised ones =.=

Then forget about the tint. A high quality tint does not raise the price of the car anywhere near the amount you would spend on it. A low quality tint will most likely reduce the overall value.

These are throw over seat covers and the price you pay is for quality materials and a product made in australia not cheap rubbish from bg w that fades really fast. The front seat covers are universal fit and the back is the custom size. As for having more seat to cover theirs velcro straps on the back which you can make them fit tighter I have not go around to make them tigher yet but I will.

Also here is some information about the AXS product range because obviosuly you have no idea what you are talking about comparing these with seat covers form big W.

AXS universal front pro sports seat covers are designed to fit standard cars & medium size Recaro shaped seats. Fastened by unique adjustable velcro straps.
* Unlike normal sponge bonded seat covers, AXS covers wont grind away at your velour or material seats.
* The fabric is designed not to slip & slide while you enjoy the ride.

i don't see how $80 slip ons can be different to $30 slip ons, sure the stitching is probably better, but what do you mean when they *grip* better? Whats that all about. Seat covers are seat covers to me, all your buying is the brand.

Yeah Ive experienced in the past that cheaper ones they tend to develop holes n stuff after AGES.... so the better material means it will last longer. Thats about it.

I think they mean how much your body moves/travels when driving... sure it has a lot to do with the seat design as well, but different materials sometimes hold you in firmer than others. Some cars with cheap leather offer very little grip for your body and you will find yourself sliding around alot more than if they had used ordinary fabric seats.
