I completly agree with the OP on the point of this thread about not being fooled. but if the only diff is the little bit more cloth here and less plastic there. why pay more for the same seat?

You might be missing the point..

Lets say you went to a steak house to get some Filet Mignon.. But instead of getting a filet Mignon, you get a less quality chuck steak. Sure they are both come from a cow, but you didn't get what you paid for. Point is, if you went to the steak house asking for chuck steak in the beginning, there is no issue.. But if they are telling you its filet Mignon and selling you a chuck steak, then its an issue.

Do you see the point??

Its each at its own to go with replica or the real thing. The issue at hand is don't get scammed by those who's selling a replica and saying its real. Also people are after the real thing because certain seats only carry FIA certification. For instance, Recaros have FIA and replicas don't. Both could be made in similar fashion and replica could be as safe... But its just ifs.. where as one is tested and proven and FIA certification is given.
