Default How to tell the difference between real and fake brides

Alright so I'm curious how do you tell the difference between real or fake brides. I got a set of ergo 2's from someone but they look exactly like the brix 2's. They are like a fleese type of material. How can I tell if they are real!?

You look at the tags on the seats. Fakes have "Bride" writing with the Bride Ghost picture on it, and the Reals have Japanese writings.

Correct me if I'm wrong though.

research first trade your seats later, me thinks this thread should have been made before you lost your real seats.

Sorry dude!

Seriously you obviously thought they might be fakes otherwise why make this thread.

^^ makes me feel really good guys, although the only thing that makes me suspicious of them is the bride tag on the side does'nt say "made in japan" on the back of it
