Is there any padding though? They look like hard plastic.

the factry seats (also still has new) are ALSO all red. just Keeping with what GM did...but with Better seats

Yes they are padded. and fit better then the GM Seats.
also my 5 point belt fits.better. with the 5 belt.fitting up in between the bottom pads.

and its the Flaim Red.In Artic white Z28. that stands out. Every Body has a gray/black or tan Inter. the red Just POPS! hot rod!

Side note:
the Black and red in a Black Z28 pops also..(My 96 Camaro had that
