Nismo REPLICA .. those two words say it all .. and that is a REALLY bad analogy .. If you said you put on a stock bumper and stickered it up NISMO .. it would more a little more sense.. a Nismo replica will still be a new front bumper although a replica .. he did not get replica bride seats in this situation ... (they do exist) .. all in all he but Bride on Stock seats not for function .. not for looks (because stocks would have looked much better) .. but to make it seem like he has Bride seats .. he went out of his way to acquire fake bride material and make it with his stockies .. I wouldn't really care if he did a gradation design on the seats .. but WHY BRIDE?!?! Then he says money is not a problem .. and starts hating on other people .. then WHY post AT ALL? anyone who can count to ten would have known the majority wouldn't like that.. HONDA mods are usually not looked highly upon .. no offense ..

PS - the recaro comment was sarcasm ..

My mistake if the material is not fake .. I am calm .. and I am too lazy to go back and read to see what you wrote .. I read this thread awhile back and it has grown a few pages since then .. I could care less if you have those seats or not .. I just stated MY opinion and I got annoyed of comments such as "fawk haters" etc etc .. as they try to stand up for those seats with no logical reasoning .. and bad analogies .. that's it .. if you like those seats more power to you .. I myself can't come to like those seats and feel as if they are "fake" .. Your on a public forum and your bound to get both negative and positive feedbacks .. life goes on .. live with it ..

I thikn elites got a point....

How many of us have replica kits and no-one says anything but when someone recovers a seat in some nice material people bash him....hmm..

While i personally wouldnt recover my seats with bride fabric (id be more prone to buy the brides) we forget that lots of people are not about to blow money on their cars like some of us and choose alternate means to sprucing up their looks a lil.

Then again if you can afford getting real brides and choose to do this i have no clue why someone would do such a thing.

I personally like that bride gradation fabric myself and since ur not showing ur car i saw whatever man, its all good.

Ok bad analogy. Regardless replica is not AUTHENTIC no matter how you put it. Just because it doesnt have for say Nismo badging doesnt hide the fact that its NOT a Nismo V1 bumper....
Just because you dont like, doesnt mean you can flame him. to each his own

I think it's an original idea. I personally don't like cloth seats period, but it's his car. Why in the world does anyone care if you're not making the payments on it....

Elite I think your seats look really nice. I personally wouldn't do it, but I understand why you did it. I also like the look of having some really nice aftermarket seats, but I also don't want to lose the power/heated seat options. Money is not the issue, but the comofort is... So yeah.. F*CK the haters.. seriously... Not for having a opinion, but for taking as a personal attack, while they wait for their ***** to drop... BUt hey.. thats just my personal opinion

Last a I checked probably 75% of the people with aftermarket seats don't track their cars, or even use their harnesses. It's done totally for looks. In Elites case, he's totally upfront that its just for looks, so who's the poser?

Sorry but GTR badges on a Mustang make more sense to me..... this is how you do it right the first time.



Also to add, I like my Aerosync a lot more then the Nismo lip because the Aerosnyc deletes the line going across. No Nismo badges here....

well, it has been said...a lot, but i think the seats are very clean. personally, i would not have them covered with that material, but they are covered well. just curious as to what your primary motivation for this "mod" was??

Hm, I'm split on the seats. But each person mods their car to their own taste no? If he thinks it's fly,that's all that matters.

On the Subaru forums, there are SO many people that do the same as he did except even on the fabric on the door cards, rear seats, mats, and front seats. It gets out of hand, you guys have seen nothing. haha.

The term "rice" is being misused as his mod does not imply his car is any faster than it did before (like stickers do). He is just decoarting a bland interior.

It looks good, just not something I would do, which doesn't really matter.
He doesn't need to prove anything to anyone, whats so hard to believe he has powdercoated Track wheels, he doesn't need to post a pic (although I'd like to see one just to see how they look)

Only thing a person who mods a car needs to prove is that he proves to himself what he's doing is making himself happy.

To each his own, and what he did he did it cleanly so props to that.

Errr... In what premise does this constitute a sound reasoning? A lack of Nismo badge does not support the authenthicity of your Aerosync bumper - It's still a REPLICA Nismo front bumper.

As for the OP - Don't let these people wind you up. There's a slight injustice to see BRIDE declaration on a non-BRIDE product, but to each his/her own. It wouldn't have been as sour if you left out "I could've afford BRIDE seats, but .... "

I not embarassed to admit; I'm saving for BRIDE seats myself, and I know how expensive a nice set of reclinables can get.
