Driver's Seat Foam Collapsing

I've also noticed that it is the loudest when it is around 70 degrees fahrenheit outside. I think the issue is that one of the hard plastic parts in the dashboard is expanding/contracting based on...

Looks are subjective, but fit isn't. Damn, looks like I'm going to have to think of something else.

Anyone know of a decent body kit that won't cost me $6,000?

What's the problem with the quality? Are we talking parts arriving broken, or stuff that cracks when the wind blows the wrong way, etc.?

Yikes, this is looking expensive... d'oh!

I may just go with replacing the front bumper; the rear bumper only has a small ding in it, so it can probably be salvaged.
