    Also, seat dimensions for fat asses?
    I'll see what I can do. I've talk to them and they can do a alcantra finish as well.


    Regarind the size, I'll post up the dimension tomorrow. With my first hand experience, they fit like the authentic seats. Uses the same rails as well. To be honest, It's really hard to define fat friendly. I have the B1 and they fit me pretty comfortable. I am 5'8" and 145Ib. It's not tight as all. My friend is 5'10" and 200Ib. He like the B1 as well but he fits pretty snug.

    The other 2 fixed bucket are just with higher thigh bolster and head protection. If you want daily seat, the B5 is your best bet for something who is bigger and looking for a buck seats.



    Rail - No i don't have them at this moment. Brides are expensive but you can get nagisa or other brand. It's more budget friendly.

      That's because these pictures are the "real deal" Bride and Recaro seats taken from the respective manufacturer's web site then had the logos digitally removed; are they not?

        Ummm nope... I actually doubt that. Reproductions can be made to look the exact same. I have seen both real a fake brides and sometimes it's hard to tell that's how close they are
        Miss driving sooooo bad! Need to get a car on the road ASAP!

          Here's the photo used for the R2 seat from Recaro's web site. Can you see the same light colour seam line on the bottom cushion?


          http://www.recaro-automotive.com/us/...uct/profi.html

          See the same dark shade on the top right corner of the bottom cushion in the Profi Recaro and the same bright line on the bottom seat rail under the Recaro logo?

          The original type B4 from Bride Japan's web site:




          Go down load these pictures from these name brand's site, paste them side-by-side with the ones in this post and compare them. You'll see that they have the same angles, creases, finish and shadows and if you zoom into the areas where the logos are you'll see the touch-ups.

              I just want to point out why cschepp's statement is true. Who knows, these seats might even be better built then the name brand stuff!

              FYI even tees-usa has a disclaimer on their products:
