Are they too cheap to be true? that's your answer.
If you are paying less than 1200 bucks for a pair then they are fake

so basicly he is selling them fake or real he doesnt know.

so I want to confirm if they are fake so he doesnt sell them as "i dont know" seats

so please some one give me explaination why they are fake so the guy will know

ok i can provide some definite answers for u and ur friend. i actually wrote a whole paragraph earlier but i forgot to sign into this school computer and everything was lost since i was using the quick reply

from the pics provided, i can say that they are 100% fake. reasons:

1. in those pics, the fabric looks off. hard to explain w/o a comparison pic so i will try to get one up. i have to go home and see if i still have one since i sold my seats a while back. and of course, if u have alcantara fabric that is fake also.

2. the pic with the recline adjustment ****, those roundish things arent flat. the real ones are also round, but flat on the surface.

3. by looking at the leg bolsters, the seats look like the brix II model. those are known to be heavily replicated and sold on ebay for a couple hundred dollars for a pair. i have not seen a fake ergo II model tho(doesnt mean that they dont exist). the ergo II have higher and rounder leg bolsters.

4. the pad/cushion in the middle is too wide, making the overall seat a little wider than the real ones. the cushion from real brixII/ergoII are lesser in width.

5. a real seat SHOULD have a white with red lettering rectangular bride sticker on the bottom that states the model, model #, etc.

thats all i can think of right now. lmk if u have any more questions.

You should see the fake Brides my friend has. When he floors his gsr the seat moves back 2 inches I swear. He still claims they are real yet they only costed his stock sol seats for it. I tolded him he got jacked.
