Seat identification

Anybody know who makes these seats? Saw them on the 4 Laws all carbon 911 but couldn't find any info on where they source the seat/upholstery. It's always a possibility that they crafted them themselves. I'm really intrigued by the upholstery. Thoughts?

Why would anyone remove the head-rests? Retro looks but really?

Only reason would be the retro look. Similar to the old school bomber-style seat. First I've seen that kind of upholstery though. Almost looks like two layers with the rivets below the raised "slats".

Looks inspired by some of the Ferrari Daytona style seats and maybe Maserati Bora... but way more extreme.

Those seats are made by Bride in Japan, model Histrix. Looks like they did a carbon overlay on the seatbacks.
