I think sheepskin covers are for... older members of the community and I think they'd probably look out of place in your car as its modded. That said alot of people like the softness and comfort of sheepskin.
Have you tried looking at supercrap, repco etc?

I used to have throwovers in my old car and they were great; I just chucked em in the washing machine every few months (polyester). There are Subaru ones you can get for about $30.00 each.
With the side airbags I can't use any seat cover now, but in hindsight I should not have thrown out my old throwovers when I sold the car, since I could still use them now to protect the front seats when I'm working on the car and covered in grease.

You can get thinner, Black, sheepskin now that looks more at home in a modified car (I agree, extremely comfortable..)
Do you have leather seats or just the material?

I'd go the second ones because IMO they match your car better and its not really an STI although we do love pink bits
