Porsche 997 GT3 Lightweight Bucket Seats, Genuine Carbon Fiber Full Buckets

Step up to a genuine set of Porsche 997 GT3 lightweight bucket seats — the carbon fiber full buckets derived from the Carrera GT’s seat design and offered as a factory option on the 997-generation GT3 and GT3 RS. These aren’t a generic aftermarket race seat; they’re the real Porsche Motorsport part, built to shed serious weight while keeping you locked in place through every corner.

The seat shell is molded from a lightweight glass and carbon fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP/CFRP) composite with a visible carbon-fiber finish, cutting roughly 50 lbs versus the standard 997 sport seat — a meaningful gain for anyone chasing a lower curb weight or a lower center of gravity. Despite the weight savings, the shell construction adds real strength and crash protection, including an integral thorax airbag for genuine day-to-day safety alongside the aggressive lateral support.
