yeah, i had a '00 civic and it shocked the hell out of me. don't wear jeans and a t-shirt in the stock seats.
i ended up buying cheap leather seat covers (about $15 each) and never touched the seat fabric again.
the ground straps should work; there are a lot of cars with them hanging down.
maybe the anti static spray will work, i never thought of that when i had my problem.

I think you can buy something that clips to the under carrage of your car that hangs down. It's a strip of rubber that has a metal piece ran through it. Once the car stops it touches the ground and grounds the car.
Not sure if this thing actually works though.

In the laundry area of your local Walmart, look for anti-static spray. Use it on the upholstery -- often!
A static spark can be a real problem at gas stations!

put seat covers on and there wont be friction between you and the seat to cause the static. Once that is gone you shouldn't be shocked when touching other things in the car!
