    when you say shipping out customer seats in 2 weeks, do you mean to us or to Zanasi for upholstering?

    Yes, I meant to the customers! :D

    Your pair should be ready to ship in about two weeks. You’ll receive a tracking number once they’re out the door. I really hope they’ll be worth the wait, we’re putting everything into making them perfect.

    Quick update from the shop:

    First seat has now been successfully test-assembled with foam, matching the original seat structure in geometry, feel and fit.

    Carbon shells are completed and prepped for paint, tooling has delivered consistent results across the batch.

    Foam shaping is finalized, ready for trimming and upholstery.

    All mechanical parts (hinges, rails, tilt system) have been completed and test-fitted to spec.


    This setup will now serve as the permanent base for all future Ferrari 355 seat reproductions, combining OEM-correct ergonomics, mechanical function, and lightweight construction.

    Update on CarbonSeats.com Ferrari 355 Carbon Seat Reproductions

    Just wanted to share a quick production update. We’ve completed clear-coating on the first batch of carbon shells and I’m incredibly happy with the quality and surface clarity.

    These are full reproduction shells for the F355 with OEM-correct carbon weave and geometry, faithfully recreated from original factory seats. All parts will be upholstered to order with custom leather/Alcantara options, using period-correct hides and stitching.

    Here are some photos and a short video of the recent progress:

    We’re now ramping up production for early customers and plan to open general availability in Q3.

    Feel free to DM me if you want to reserve a pair – these will be limited and built to order only.
