Purpose and fitment for BMW 3 E90 LCI

The presented backrest cover is intended for the rear left section of the seat in the BMW 3 Series E90 generation after the facelift (LCI). The design has been developed for the specific geometry of the standard seat, which translates into the correct alignment of seams, mounting holes, and contour lines. As a result, the component integrates with the remaining upholstery sections without the need for modifications.

Its original BMW origin ensures that factory quality standards are maintained, both in terms of dimensions and mounting methods. This is a particularly beneficial solution when replacing a damaged backrest following a collision, wear and tear, or localized abrasions.

Upholstery material and finish

The cover is made of Vertex Anthrazit fabric upholstery, used as factory equipment in selected BMW 3 E90 LCI interior configurations. The fabric provides:

• a color-consistent shade with other interior elements in the Anthrazit version,
• usage comfort typical of fabric upholstery,
• easier maintenance compared to many non-factory replacements.

The material structure has been selected for daily use – it is resistant to typical loads associated with using the rear seat, such as frequent passenger entry or transporting luggage on the backrest after folding the seats.

Condition, functionality, and service application

The item comes from the Seats and benches group and is offered as a used part, which allows for an economical interior repair while maintaining the original BMW standard. This type of cover is suitable in situations where:

• the original backrest has been mechanically damaged (cuts, abrasions, burns),
• it is necessary to replace a fragment of the upholstery after bodywork repairs,
• you want to restore a consistent look to the rear seat after partial interior renovation.

Due to its factory origin, the cover is a good choice for users who want to avoid differences in shade, texture, or material pattern, which are typical of universal non-factory covers.

Benefits of using an original backrest cover

Using an original backrest cover in a BMW 3 E90 LCI brings a number of practical benefits:

• Factory fit – no need for modifications, proper placement on the backrest foam, and compliance with the seat line.
• Consistent interior aesthetics – identical fabric type and Anthrazit color, without the "patchwork" effect or shade differences.
• Reasonable repair cost – the ability to replace just the cover instead of the complete seat.

This solution is particularly attractive for those who care about maintaining the original character of the BMW interior while looking for a technically correct and economical method of renovating the rear seat.
