Default custom extended headrest on oem seats

hello to everyone.

i would like to share my idea for custom extended headrest for my oem s2000 seat

the reasons for going for that was that i wanted to have a more lower seating position , i was able to get the more lower position by reclining the seat pretty far back ,
and it was also very comfortable to seat like that, but i was loosing any neck and head support ,so i came to that idea and it solved the problem .

now i am able to have the comfort of what a lot of people refer as "gangsta lean " , its giving me low seating position and same time enjoy a full head and neck
support , and i think its looks pretty good

to be completely honest....it's a good thing I had a few hours to digest before i laid eyes on this monstrosity...no way man...I mean maybe a better solution would be to get the the ricks's headrest piece...this just doesn't cut it....looks like the seats have a tumor

It looks like you actually wrapped a human, LOL.

Must be nice for comfort though.

Seriously are you smuggling people in there? That is terrible and I cannot see it being that comfortable. Do you happen to look like this guy?

I appreciate the ingenuity. However the driving position looks very awkward to me. Are you able to get a good grip on the steering wheel?
