Bride seat REAL or FAKE?!

[Drift24Osx]

A friend has bought a Bride Vios III Sport racing seat from another person. He swears that it is real, but I think it is fake. I have read a lot about them and have looked at the Japanese Bride website in the copy section and tried to make out what I could. I will let the Zilvia community decide. I have also sent the pictures in to confirm whether or not they are fake.

It's real.....

[ILoveMyRHS13]

Fake.

The VIOS III Sport was a black shell.

The VIOS III had the silver.

I have a seat similar to that but with a black shell and it's listed as a regular VIOS III. Same fabric as well. I'm pretty sure it's fake.

You DO know that some fake Gias' have the "MADE IN JAPAN" tag as well?

I would wager the OP's seat is fake. That same "MADE IN JAPAN" tag as well as the actual "BRIDE" tag is done very sloppily.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

My Fride has the same "made in Japan" tag. Faaaake. But WHO CARES is the important part.

Your safety and FIA cares lol

[ILoveMyRHS13]

ANY seat can be FIA approved as long as the roll cage touches the back of the seat.
And I'm pretty sure fiberglass is fiberglass.

Not sure if you're right, you may be but for the record i wasn't insulting you.

[wh0aitznic0]

At the end of the day, it's a cool seat.

If you had never made this thread, you would have gotten SO many cool points at meets and shit.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

for the record i wasn't insulting you.
I know. :)

To me, a seat is a seat. The only time I would prefer not to buy a knock-off seat is when it's reclinable. To me, fiberglass is fiberglass. As long as it holds me, I'm good.

I'll sell my Fride in a heartbeat when a certain company releases their new seats. AHEM. :ghey:

[Souljahzs13]

Yea the bucket seat is a fake, its not the right fabric material that the seat is wrapped in.

[wh0aitznic0]

And I'll probably be the one to buy that same Fride and tell people it's real.

[Drift24Osx]

Thanks Zilvia! Well the only problem I had was that he paid the price of a real bride seat. So to get a replica for the retail price is no good.

[huffandpuff00]

that dont look like buck-skin. im not sure, but i thought thats what they are made from

[DMafioso180]

Heres what i have been told. Bride is actually a fabric company.If you notice the same gradation print on the 180sx kouki seats. It is essentially bride fabric in a sense. The shells of some counterfeit bride seats are actually made out of the same mold as the Brides. So a major determining factor when trying to distinguish seats is to look at the fabric. The pictures you posted look like fake material. Fake material feels sort of rough like a recaro SRD seat. An authentic Bride seat will feel soft and smooth like some of the Sparco seat fabric, like on the sparco sprints. I actually had a chance to sit 2 seats side by side one fake one authentic. all i can say is that the counterfeits dont compare. the ones i sat in didnt hold nearly as tight. The stitching on the fake was not perfectly straight along the top seam. My friends real seat was 2yrs older than my other friends fake and it is in much better shape, the material holds up much better. it looks newer than the fake even though it is older. I almost purchased some fakes but after sitting in the real thing there isnt any real comparison.

[DMafioso180]

actually in the last picture it almost looks like its authentic. its hard to say with just pictures unless they were in higher resolution pictures.

[tricky_ab]

Thank god they've changed the design a little on the new seats (and the knock off companies have yet to jack it)...

[JDMpurest]

That seat is 100% real, notice the NAPAC serial number? I live in japan and it is very easy to get that seat in the shell color. You got a deal man that seat is legit. You could even call the NAPAC japanese number listed on that tag and give them that serial number and they can confirm.

[Corbic]

Ironicly, Bride won't certify their seats over 200lbs... Not exactly the call sign of a well built seat.

[94_240sx]

It's real.

[CamryOnBronze]

Ironicly, Bride won't certify their seats over 200lbs... Not exactly the call sign of a well built seat.

Fatty Americans don't usually fit in Bride seats anyway. :hahano:

[JDMpurest]

Ironicly, Bride won't certify their seats over 200lbs... Not exactly the call sign of a well built seat.

Actually your ignorance is referring to the crash tests Bride has performed with there seats. They havent tested a dummy weighing over 200lbs so they cant guarantee the integrity of the seat. Try opening your eyes instead of opening your mouth and shooting shit everywhere. Numerous Super GT cars use Bride seats, numerous FIA GT teams use bride seats. There are a few Bride seat models with FIA stamps of approval, are you saying the FIA doesnt care about safety or quality? The FIA is the largest motorsports organization in the world, not to mention the governing body of the majority of all motorsports in the world. I guess all anyone has to do is look at your busted ass 240 to believe that you can spot quality, how ironic is that. So where is your logic? Maybe your just a moron I dont know??


Dude I found this cool picture for you.
http://i932.photobucket.com/albums/ad167/jdmpureblog/jean-todt.jpg

I am tired of retarded kids on forums talking shit about companys that have been in business making quality parts for decades.

[Mitsuboost30]

this is correct..
yup its real
fake ones say made in china or taiwan or canada

I personally own a real bride seat and good replica of the same model. They make them from the same mold and the replicas look real close to the authentics but the material qualities are different. Even now the replicas have a copy NAPAC sticker and other badges.

[RUTH'LESSDET]

Most likely fake my Fride (vios III) looked the same. They sell them with black and silver backs who cares anymore, seat looks good to me hope you didnt pay alot for it...lol

[franklin93zx]

wrong its real..
you sure are knowledgeable!

[ILoveJDM]

looks real to me
another good tell is "bride" stamped into the plastic black loops where the belts pass through.

[maverickmotorsports]

I know. :)

not all fiberglass is equal. you also have to look at the resins used. epoxy vs polyester. how it's laid up, etc.

[BustedS13]

My Fride has the same "made in Japan" tag. Faaaake. But WHO CARES is the important part.


Brian Harte would care.

[Pirate_Freder]

Look's like it is wrapped in the same fabric as my Fride Gais's, plus mine have the NAPAC sticker, made in Japan tag, and Bride on the harness loops. Unless these people are wrong about the difference in the fabric then it is a fake.

Prob only way to tell is by doing what JDMpurest said and calling NAPAC to verify the serial #'s authenticity.

[Martino]

I can't believe how much of a hassle this is.

Although coping a seat directly is purely horrid there should be at least a significant difference for one to tell.

My buddy picked up a low max for $1000 thinking it was real and we came to the conclusion after hours of searching that it was indeed fake.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

looks real to me
another good tell is "bride" stamped into the plastic black loops where the belts pass through.
The fake ones have that too.

The ONLY thing that makes me think it's fake is that it's listed as a "VIOS III Sport" which was a BLACK shell. The NON Sport had the silver shell.

My Fride has the NAPAC sticker, my Fride has the Bride stamped in the hoops, my Fride has the same fabric, my Fride has the same looking stitching.

I still say it's fake, sorry.

[CamryOnBronze]

The whole fake parts thing is really frustrating, especially where Bride seats are concerned. I've been searching for a "deal" on one for a while now, but I don't think I could ever bring myself to buy a used one. Ordering from a legit retailer and buying it brand new is pretty much the only way to know you got the real deal, IMO.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

Here's a real VIOS III. Note the tag underneath not saying Sport.

[KansaiDrifter]

it's a fakey, but hey at 1/3 the real price, it's a good deal anyway

[lflkajfj12123]

Brian Harte would care.

Brian Harte is a weiner.

[yarou]

everyone in here who thinks it's real has too much faith in china. the seat OP posted is fake, the material is all wrong

[Drift24Osx]

I still think its fake. From the outside it looks legit. But then when you take off the pads the stitching underneath is messy. The cloth does not sit on the seat completely flush, there are wrinkles. From the real Bride seats that I have seen, I have never seen it look like that. What I have come up with is that for the Bride Vios III Sport is that they came in a black shell. The fabric looks similar. But the bottom pad in the sport model was not split in the middle. In this seat it is. And looking at the pad, the split in the foam is not even on both sides. One side is bigger than the other. There is something just not right about it. The stitching on the outside is not messy but the way the material fits around the seat is not completely flush. Its the details which lead me to believe this is not a real bride seat.

[NeedCAforS13]

everyone in here who thinks it's real has too much faith in china. the seat OP posted is fake, the material is all wrong

Agreed. I had a set of fakes and they had the bride stampings in the harness holes, the bride stickers, NAPAC sticker, everything. The only difference is the fabric texture.

You guys think they can replicate the actual physical seat perfectly, but they can't make a few stickers or tags? There's some pretty clueless people out there. That's the easy part of making a knock off.

[Corbic]

Fanboi dribble

Yo, JDM-E-thug, sorry I got your panties twisted by knocking your favorite brand, or are you just upset you over spent trying to impress your kid brother's friends?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v242/Corbic/STFUTOOL.jpg

Oh my, they've dropped the max weight from 200lbs to 175lbs. Average male at 5'10 is 180lbs, and anyone over 6'2 in good shape can be well over 220lbs. So can the "fatty" comment as not everyone is a 13 year old pre-pubescent teenage boy wearing his sisters jeans.

Typically when designing products and specs, you want your specs to FAR exceed the actual application. I'd want to see "max weight 500lbs" regardless if a 500lb person could fit in it. Also, I don't recall seeing a MASSIVE POP UP WARNING on Spareco, Corbeu, Recaro, or Cobra's making sure we all know they are not liable for injury as a result of their seats.

What the massive warning tells me, is that people have been injured in their seats and they have had seat failures and this is to get out of liability from future complaints.

Also, FIA certified? Really... all of their seats? Recliners are not going to be passing any professional motor-sport sanctioning group.

As for knocking "companies making parts for decades". General Motors has been around since 1908... so obviously the Cavalier spanks the shit out of the 240sx!!!!!

[enkei2k]

so i still have a chance at getting legit brides! yes for me being 'somewhat' skinny at 5'8" 145lbs! hahah

[Corbic]

LOL, sure, just make sure you get them from a Registered Dealer listed on their site. If you are going for legit Brides, I would pass on saving the ~$100-200 on buying used or off ebay or something. There are just to many knock-offs out there, and as the OPs photos show, they can be very convincing.

I dont have a kid brother, Im an adult, im married, i live in japan, i have a genuine bride Artis 2 and brix 2 in my R32. Your are a piece of shit.

So can the "fatty" comment as not everyone is a 13 year old pre-pubescent teenage boy wearing his sisters jeans. Yes dumbass but most buyers are japanese and have a waist line smaller than 32.

O so your an Engineer now?

What the massive warning tells me, is that people have been injured in their seats and they have had seat failures and this is to get out of liability from future complaints. Thats because the seats were not originally designed for the larger frame of americans.

Also, FIA certified? Really... all of their seats? Recliners are not going to be passing any professional motor-sport sanctioning group. I didn't say all of there seats i said some.

For sure, just like wannabe Vertex areo. It looks alike, but the fiberglass much loosley weaved and wavy. Whatever floats your boat.

[driftsilvias13]

Just by the stitching I can tell its fake. Just because it has stickers its real?! Anyone can make a copy of those...

[revat619]

They're even knocking off the older designs now. Zeta II copy.

Exactly. Its a Zeta II. Those are common as hell.

[mangoes]

its fake.

The Vios III sport actually has a drab light gray shell, not black. The normal Vios has the sparkly silver shell.

[night87]

this is a month old thread, but i just got my vios III seat in red and w/ black shell. it's really really hard to tell if the one you have is real or fake. i will say it's real

[mau5trap]

it's fake foo.

[night87]

iunno...doing some research, i'm still going to say it is the real thing.
Now i've found some info regarding the vios III in red.


Now these are the replicas of these seats in black shell, which mine is in black shell as well
http://i991.photobucket.com/albums/af37/atttottt/yhst-39961695802916_2101_310567173.jpg
The replicas do look like replicas because the "low max" is not in white and in red. I know that the real ones have it in white and I confirmed this by looking at japan sites for the seats.

Now these are the ones listed on ebay, BUT the sellers are in austrilia and says that they are authentic and provides certifications. Prices are right as well.
eBay.com.sg: 2X Genuine Bride Low Max Vios 3 Fibreglass Bucket Seats (item 150318987006 end time Apr 06, 2010 00:51:24 SGT) (http://cgi.ebay.com.sg/2X-Genuine-Bride-Low-Max-Vios-3-Fibreglass-Bucket-Seats-/150318987006)

Yes, i kno the vios iii sport only comes in a black shell, but confirming w/ the people in BRIDE, seems like non-sports come in black shells as well.

[yarou]

seriously dude. OP's seat is fake.

[night87]

on the second thought, i think you guys are rigth :D
vios iii sport is only made in black shells and the shoulder stitching is not like that.

Looks real...they didnt really bootleg the old stuff, mostly just the new stuff. Looks like an Ergo 1, I got a red one on my passenger side. Rocking Ergo2 for my driver side.

[PeaceOnesxWai]

Damn this one is seriously hard to tell

One fact i know is it can be made in Canada, where Bride doesnt have a patent at and there is actually a manufacturing company legally making these fake brides and distributing them as actual Brides. Im pretty sure Canadian quality can get as close or to the same as Japan made Brides

[Nintensity]

Yeah ive never heard of a fake XAXII before but when i saw pics of it, i thought it was fake i'm comparison to the xax II i've seen out there. I just wish peoples cameras are a lot BETTER... Why do ppl have to take pictures in the dark.. Lol

[AnDyStYLe]

Heres what i have been told. Bride is actually a fabric company.If you notice the same gradation print on the 180sx kouki seats. It is essentially bride fabric in a sense. The shells of some counterfeit bride seats are actually made out of the same mold as the Brides. So a major determining factor when trying to distinguish seats is to look at the fabric. The pictures you posted look like fake material. Fake material feels sort of rough like a recaro SRD seat. An authentic Bride seat will feel soft and smooth like some of the Sparco seat fabric, like on the sparco sprints. I actually had a chance to sit 2 seats side by side one fake one authentic. all i can say is that the counterfeits dont compare. the ones i sat in didnt hold nearly as tight. The stitching on the fake was not perfectly straight along the top seam. My friends real seat was 2yrs older than my other friends fake and it is in much better shape, the material holds up much better. it looks newer than the fake even though it is older. I almost purchased some fakes but after sitting in the real thing there isnt any real comparison.

Quoted for truth... Genuine Bride Japan seats doesn't have that type of fabric, and is more like a velour fabric (i.e. like the Kouki 180sx seats). Judging by the close ups of the fabic in the OP's post, I conclude it's a fake.

Cheers,

Andy

*Pics sniped*




Thanks in advance!!! :)

Genuine... Going off the pictures, the fabric is legit Bride Japan.

Also, going of the pic that shows the back rest leaning forward, the way the fabric is attached at the bottom of the back rest is legit (i.e. with velcro). The back and butt cushions should be hooked on by plastic latches that are removable and replacable. Tell tale sign of a fake is that they don't do this.

Cheers,

Andy
