I have seen tons of various coverings, but don't think I have ever seen a coated or even painted seat in a sanctioned race car.

I just called Kirkey racing to verify and they infact have there seats powdercoated and offer the option of coating them when ordered even.....Kevin at Kirkey states that it will not affect the structural integrity whatsoever of the aluminum seat...he said many race teams run powdercoated seats for a better look or to go with team colors.
