and the back of the seat should look like this
i think they release a sport model that look flat black at the back, BUT it doesnt come with graduation

if u r trading it in person, as long as u see the sticker, it must be real

theyre fake.. from what i understand its the same company that makes the real brides but since bride didnt trade mark it or something the company makes a knock off from a diff country... something along the lines of that i forgot the story and sorry for my useless post lol..

So if it's made by the same company then it might be the same quality, in which case what is the disadvantage of getting the fakes other than bling?
