ok I understand why people like Bride seats, because they're comfy, supportive ie. much better than anything from the factory. But why on earth would you just want "bride bride bride bride" written all over your seats ??? I've never understood this, so pleaseee help me understand.

For those that don't remember, Bride is an english word and stands for "womant that just got married" so why would anyone want that spammed all over their seats ? If I ever get Bride seats I'll reupholster them and put "ballz ballz ballz ballz" in the same style because it's just as cool, but funnier.

The Brand is not meant to be read in Western Language. Clearly the seats are from japan. They are pro nounced BRI-DE (bree- day).

So typical for someone to assume its pronounced "bride" and make assumptions.

Does the name Bride have to actually mean something? sorry, i didnt know that every brand in the world has an actual meaning? (sarcasm)

So for you, who is ignorant. its not bride, its Bri-de.

and like Louis Vuitton, who has their logo patterned over their items, Bride is tagged on seats in this style.

Ballz is cooler? yuck, using your english interpretation- why would you want to have multiple balls (gay)? i know i would much rather have multiple brides.

We live in an english speaking country, and Bride is an english word. Dunno, to me to it just looks stupid to have it spammed all over the seats ..or even once. 99% of the people would have never heard of the brand and when they see your seats they'd think you're some sort of a gaylord.

No I am not against the SEATS, they rock, just the stupid branding and excessive use of it, but each to their own.

Yes we live in an english speaking country, so does that mean that a company in another country has to comply with english or that the meaning of their brand name is the same as its meaning in english (if it even has a meaning)?

People who jump to conclusions are uneducated. As are people who do not identify that English is not the only language- and that there are many different cultures around the world.

Why someone would retrim genuine Bride seats (unless they were worn beyond conveniant useage) is beyond me. You simply loose money on changing a genuine item, by making it... un-genuine?

And who cares about what other people think? So long as you know you have seats one of the most preffered and highly regarded racing seat manufacturer.

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
