About the BMW G-Series 3-Series Fitment

The current-generation 3-Series has a much more electronically integrated interior than earlier BMWs, but the basic benefit of a supportive performance seat is the same: improved body control and a more connected driving position for road or track use.

Cabin and installation notes: Physical seat space is generally generous, but the original seat may incorporate electrical adjustment, occupancy sensing, airbags or other vehicle functions depending on specification. Plan the electrical and warning-system side of the conversion as carefully as the mechanical fitment.

Seat Model and Specification

FAFE Slim Fixed-Back Fibreglass Bucket Seat

The Barbarian Racing FAFE is designed around compact packaging. Its 48cm maximum lower width and 56cm maximum upper width make it one of the slimmer full-height seats in the range, while the black suedette trim and ribbed padding give it a more premium appearance than the brushed-felt models.

Why choose the FAFE? It is a strong option for MX-5s, small coupes and other tight cabins where every centimetre of tunnel, door and roof clearance matters, but where you still want a full fixed-back seat with an integrated head-restraint shape.
