Yours is very cheap and anyone whos buys reps over them would seriously have to question themselves lol.

The reason Bride and Recaro are so expensive is because they are built to withstand serious punishment in the event on a crash. The reps have not been tesedt and would probably have the same properties as cheese once different forces are applied.

He's in it for the glam brothers, nothing like pretending you have the real shizzle lol, even if it's made of cheese

Surely there not that bad?, I know they arnt going to be as amazing as the real ones (hence im saving to buy them of rhdjapan),

They do look okay, is the build that shit, you can tell by the stiching differences yeah, but I havent seen build quality and structure.

Just watch the driftworks video about replica steering wheels, and see how you feel about replica parts then

I know ive seen that video, and ive seen others, I just wonder if they really are death traps why they are being sold.

Ive decided recently that I wouldnt buy reps anyway, as I would prefer to own reals than reps. However for people on a budget, but who still want style they aint that bad of a option?

But you can pick up genuine 2nd hand stuff for cheaper than new reps, wheels, seats, harnesses etc.

Becase they come out of China/Hong Kong/Taiwan where the testing and health and saftey stuff is all pretty relaxed.

They dont require the stamps and approvals etc that US/UK/JDM companies need

I suppose however people ignore the old bride for example because of its style. I like the seat but in my opinion I would prefer to own a fixed bucket seat. None the less, if i wanted reclining then i would buy it. There is a fairly big price difference between real and fake brides, but obviously for a reason, However I struggle to wonder if I can justify spending £1000 on seats?

Ahh I see, I think they appeal for the fact there cheap and do look the part. If you didnt know the difference between them then you wouldn't know. Is it worth justifying £1000 for seats though?

Is it worth justifying an extra £600-700 quid to potentially save your life/not break your spine when your out for a spirited drive, or even if somebody hits you through no fault of your own

your deciede

[daniel_g]

Not gonna lie i wouldnt pay a grand for seats, but i wouldnt spend even half that on fake ones either.

Its obviously totally up to yourself, we are just saying that the fakes can be badly made and wont provide anywhere the same amount of protection in a crash as genuine ones.

I can see myself saving for bride seats for a while then.

Thats fair enough mate, and I rather not learn the hard way. Ive always wanted brides, so may aswell save for legits

[Chris Green]

A good example to show the stress that seats take during an accident is to watch the two videos where the drive shaft goes through the window.

Could you picture the seat collapsing or snapping in an accident like that. Also if the seat breaks, you may as well not be wearing a seat belt either. You would be thrown round like a rag doll.
