BMW M3 F80 FAFE Bucket Seat Package 14-18

Vehicle-Specific Barbarian Racing Seat Package for BMW M3 F80 14-18

About the BMW F80 M3 Fitment

The F80 M3 is already a very capable performance platform, but a more supportive seat can further improve driver stability during hard braking and sustained cornering. The Barbarian package provides a complete seat-and-fitting solution for owners building a more focused road or track car.

Cabin and installation notes: The F80 cabin provides good space for performance seating, although very wide shells should still be checked at shoulder and tunnel height. The original seats may incorporate electrical and restraint-system functions, so account for those systems when planning the conversion.

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.
