Sickest Carseat EVER!

I dont know where to put this so feel free to move it.


SO i just finished with the sickest carseat for a kid ever.

Carseats really cant be that cool unless its this carseat or a recaro.

I will start taking orders if people want me to do one for them. I am not really selling but i know of someone who wants one already.

Check this out.

For that dad that hates rolling with a lame *** car seat. (me)

Child must be 1 year of age and 22lbs.

I know it can be lame rollin with a carseat. BUt it is just to much of a pain to take it out of the car all the time. if any of you dads or moms want a cooler car seat i will tell you how to do this or do it for you for cheap.
Once again I am not really selling these. I just wanted to show off what i did on my boring saturday. BUt i will help some out if you want it.

available in wrx or sti.

UPDATE:

This is the seat I used. Got it from target. NO it is not re-upholstered. It is a top rated car seat. All i did was put a stencil on it. SO the people who were trippin about me changing the safety of the seat look at how it came from store and look what i did. So power down a bit. For those who thinks it looks ghetto, suck it, you can go buy a 300-400 dollar carseat but i bet it has been recalled at some point. MIne hasnt. My little guy likes this seat fine. I would never risk his safety. And it lets him feel like he is like cool like dad.

p.s.- those of you that pick looks over safety when you have a kid you gonna have some issues come that time.Looks and safety dont always come hand-in-hand with baby junk.


I am just trying to help that dad or mom out that doesnt wanna roll Fisher-Price Jungle theme all the time. It already invaded your house. Why let it take over your car as well. I know you other parents feel me on that.

Thanks for the compliments though.



Got it from target. HA.

I'll take the one from BMW, it looks much safer and definetly has bling factor. The wrx carseat above.. Well I wouldn't even put my lil dog in that.. Looks too ghetto.

Is it just a re-upholstered car seat cover? Or is it a completely fabricated car seat?

That's gotta be a reupholstered seat. Nice job.

I rock two Radian 65 carseats (lookitup) and proud of it.

The other day I saw a Porsche Carrera-S with TWO baby seats in the back.

Just so everyone knows no it is not reupholstered. Thank you for the compliment though. Makes me feel good about my work.

All it is is a car seat from taget with a stencil. I am flattered though that it turned out that good.

and as far as saftey goes. This is carseat was rated well for safety from consumer reports. The only thing anyone had to say bad about it was that it was uncomfortable for children for very long drives. and that was only 30% of people saying that.

My kids safety is number one and i would never compromise that.
Yeah its no $180 eddie bauer seat like my wife has but i am not looking to make a fashion statement with suede carseat either.

Yeah you can so spend 400 bucks on a bratix carseat but look how many times those have been recalled.
I like this carseat cuz it was the cloest to my interior and i didnt want a fru fru carseat.

My little guy likes it fine, not that he gives a damn that it says WRX. And for the matter of ghettoness its a top rated seat still no matter how it looks.

SO, no i didnt reupholster it. Didnt moddify it in anyway except for a stencil. Anyone that would still like one like the request i have got i will do it for you takes about a 2 hours. I will send you the link for the carseat i used for it as well so you can do carseat research if you would like.
