How comfy are original buckets?

I've never done upholstery work, but here is a question. When you put a new set of covers on some oem buckets, couldn't you add a little more support i.e. different/firmer padding, maybe a lumbar set up from a newer vehicle? I'm going to be covering mine with the help of a friend that does upholstery, and I want to try to make them more comfortable.

Yes you could add more support to the seat with more contours and firmness. But doing this will force custom covers made from new patterns.
