Is the BRIDE XERO VS PLUS FIA certified?

Yes. The BRIDE XERO VS PLUS is FIA certified across all variations, covering both the silver FRP and black super aramid shell options as well as all three color choices. FIA homologations carry expiration dates, so verifying the seat's current approval status against the FIA's active homologation list before sanctioned competition use is recommended.

What makes the XERO VS PLUS suitable for vehicles with limited interior space?

The XERO VS PLUS features compact head and side supports along with reduced shoulder width dimensions compared to larger full bucket designs. This allows the seat to be installed in car models where interior space is restricted, without compromising the safety and functionality required for FIA certification.

What is CABLON ST® conductive fabric and what does it do?

CABLON ST® is a conductive skin material used in the XERO VS PLUS upholstery. It works by dispersing static electricity that builds up in and around the driver throughout the body, reducing the overall charge level. This contributes to improved maneuverability and a more comfortable driving experience, particularly during extended sessions.

Does the XERO VS PLUS require a separate seatback protector?

No. The XERO VS PLUS features a half-cover seatback construction that complies with vehicle inspection requirements, meaning a separately sold seatback protector is not needed when installing in vehicles equipped with rear seating.

What shell material options are available for the XERO VS PLUS?

The XERO VS PLUS is available in two shell materials: a silver FRP shell, which uses fiberglass-reinforced plastic construction, and a black super aramid shell, which uses high-strength aramid fiber for a stiffer and lighter alternative. Both options are FIA certified and available in all three color variations.

How does the XERO VS PLUS reduce driver fatigue during long drives?

The seat uses a combination of a firm waist and thigh hold to keep the driver secure without requiring constant physical effort to stay positioned, and quilted fabric on the inner knee bolsters to reduce pressure buildup against the driver's legs. Together, these allow drivers to maintain focus and physical control over extended periods such as endurance races.

Is the BRIDE XERO MS FIA certified?

Yes. The BRIDE XERO MS is FIA certified across all variations, covering both the silver FRP and black super aramid shell options and both color choices. FIA homologations carry expiration dates, so verifying the seat's current approval status against the FIA's active homologation list before use in sanctioned competition is recommended.

What type of protection does the large head guard on the XERO MS provide?

The large head guard on the XERO MS is designed to protect the driver's head against lateral G-forces during high-speed driving and during rear offset collisions. Combined with the rounded backrest shape and full-body enveloping shell, the seat provides structural coverage across the body and head at a level suited to serious competition conditions.

What is the difference between the silver FRP shell and the black super aramid shell?

The silver FRP shell uses fiberglass-reinforced plastic, offering a durable and proven construction at a practical weight. The black super aramid shell uses high-strength aramid fiber, which is stiffer and lighter than FRP, making it the preferred option for drivers where weight reduction is a factor. Both carry FIA certification and are available in both color options.

What color options are available for the XERO MS?

The XERO MS is available in two color options: gradient logo and black. Both colors are offered across both shell material choices and all variations are FIA certified.

How does the quilted upholstery improve driving performance?

The quilted cover upholstery on the XERO MS is designed to conform closely to the driver's body, improving fit within the shell and reducing unwanted movement during aggressive driving. This keeps the driver physically connected to the seat and, by extension, more attuned to vehicle feedback, which is a meaningful advantage in competition conditions.

Is the XERO MS suitable for street use?

The XERO MS is a competition-specific seat designed with circuit driving as its primary purpose. Its low-angle racing position and large head guard are optimized for track conditions. Drivers considering it for street use should verify local vehicle inspection requirements, as the competition-focused design may not meet all road regulations in every market.

Description

BRIDE XERO MS Bucket Seat

The XERO MS is engineered around a low-angle racing position and a shell geometry designed to wrap the full body of the driver, not just the hips and thighs. The rounded backrest shape works in combination with a large head guard, the defining visual element of the XERO series, to protect both the driver’s body and head against lateral G-forces during high-speed driving and rear offset collisions. This level of structural coverage makes the XERO MS the most protection-focused model in the lineup. The quilted cover upholstery contributes directly to the seat’s holding performance, conforming closely to the driver’s body and reducing movement within the shell during aggressive driving. The fit this creates is not just a comfort feature; it keeps the driver connected to what the car is doing, which matters most when inputs need to be precise and immediate. Two shell materials are available. The silver FRP shell uses fiberglass-reinforced plastic construction, offering a solid and reliable build. The black super aramid shell uses high-strength aramid fiber, delivering a stiffer and lighter alternative for drivers where reducing unsprung and cabin weight carries more importance. Both shell options are available in two color variations, gradient logo and black, and all combinations carry FIA certification.

Engineered to Hold, Designed to Perform

The inner knee supports use quilted cover upholstery that improves both fit and comfort over conventional seats, keeping the driver snug without added fatigue. The backrest carries a distinctive rounded shape unique to the XERO MS, creating a wraparound feel that brings together a secure, full-body hold and the low-angle positioning that competition driving demands.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
