Default bride seatss?
Its killing me. I like this item on ebay. Seems genuine. Seems good enough. Been advised by many that you can get fake/rep bride seats. What do you guys think of this item?

Probably fake. Carbon ones are about that alone.

They look like they are sat very low, what's visibility like?

I've just bought some M2 Subaru sliding subframes, so wife can drive the car, they have short side mounts and I can barely see over the dash now!

Ahhh, they have bought a trademark to use the name, they are not BRIDE JAPAN seats, they are a cheap shoddy knock off using A "Bride" name....

Sucks people in like the OP with a "trademark" certificate, means squat as its not an actual BRIDE seat, just someone using A bride name...

Check out the reviews of the copys , they all fall apart within weeks of owning them , they seem to break very easy , not good from a safety aspect really
