Application and fitment for BMW 3 E90 LCI

The presented backrest cover has been designed specifically for the rear right position in the BMW 3 Series E90 generation after the facelift (LCI). This means that the shape, stitching lines, and placement of mounting points are consistent with the factory construction of the rear seat, which facilitates installation and ensures proper material tension after fitting. The element is intended for installation in the rear seat area, on the passenger side, allowing for precise replacement of only the damaged section of upholstery without the need to interfere with other seating positions.

Upholstery material and functional benefits

The cover is made of durable upholstery fabric, selected for its resistance to daily use and compatibility with the original BMW interior finish. The structure of the Vertex Anthrazit material ensures:

• a color-consistent look with other anthracite-shaded upholstery elements,
• appropriate stiffness and stability of the backrest shape,
• comfort to the touch during longer journeys,
• easier maintenance and cleaning compared to more delicate fabrics.

Thanks to the use of original fabric, the interior retains its factory character and aesthetics after the backrest replacement, which is important both visually and for the potential resale value of the vehicle.

Installation and functional characteristics

The rear right seat backrest cover is a component intended for direct installation onto the backrest frame. Its shape and sewing lines are adapted to the serial foam and frame, which allows for:

• precise positioning of the material without unsightly folds,
• maintaining the correct backrest profile,
• proper interaction with factory rear seat equipment, such as seat belts or the armrest (if present in the specific configuration).

Replacing the cover itself is a cost-effective solution in situations of wear, local damage, or stains that cannot be effectively removed, while also reducing costs compared to replacing the entire seat or the complete rear bench.

Condition, origin, and benefits of choosing original parts

The item comes from the original BMW equipment line, which translates into compliance with factory quality and fitment standards. As a used part, the cover is an attractive cost-effective alternative to new components, while maintaining proper functionality and compatibility with the seat structure. Original origin also means that the materials used and the sewing method are consistent with the vehicle manufacturer's requirements, which minimizes the risk of installation issues.
