Question G80 M3 Seat back / Kick Mat covers?

Hi everyone,

New M3 owner here.

My kids occasionally ride in the back seat and I'm wondering if anyone has recommendations on seat back covers?

Given the front seats aren't standard (adjustable head rests), I haven't been able to find a seat cover that's appropriate.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

I couldn’t find any that fit the seats. They just don’t work right without the typical adjustable headrest.

Instead, I now just don’t permit my kids to wear shoes in the car lol. I put them on the floor and we put them on when we get to our destination.

I have a 2yr and a 6yr old, I've been doing the same thing. My 6yr old sits on a booster seat and I had shoe prints all over the seat back. Easiest fix is wear shoes at the destination.

G80 M3 Seat back/kick mat covers

I bought Brica kick mats from Amazon and my wife sowed some ribbon to get a good fit. The ribbon is thin enough that it allows the headrests to move.... kids are 8 and 6 so it was necessary

i am considering having PPF put on my carbon buckets when i take it in for PPF after delivery. there is no pattern in the Xpel database, so it would have to be custom, but the kicking is non-stop in current vehicles except the F-150, since the leg room in the back is good enough for 8-foot tall person, legs fully extended can't reach the back of the seat, even with 6'+ person in the seat hah

Thinking about having a tailor make some custom seatback covers, if anyone else is interested we might be able to do a group order?
