Hi all. I've found a Blue Recaro for sale on ebay that I am very interested in buying, but obviously I want to know it's real before I do anything and I don't have the knowledge or experience that you guys do. Any chance you could help me out? I'll attach all the photos I have. Thanks in advance for any help

It's not a DC5 integra one but it looks legit. Hmm I'm not sure if recaro have any identification labels or etc on them
 
Looks like a genuine Recaro speed to me, Can order them in all sorts of colours for about £500-600 a seat.
 
im not so sure. to me the font on the front seems a little off. the C and the O narrow out at the top and ive never seen recaro writing on the rear of the seat before.
 
From pictures it looks legit, this is a SR3 (blue) same model as Recaro Speed, it is obviously an aftermarket model. Do u have any pic showing seat side adjuster plastic cover? That should tell us more.

Yes I do actually, I requested he send me some as I've heard this is a way to tell. I'm fairly comfortable that this is a real seat
