Your going to be waiting a while for a ‘genuine GTS’ bonnet to come up as there is no such thing. You may do better with a genuine CS bonnet.

Just remember that the chances of you getting a genuine CS hood for a good price are slim, and then the chances of it fitting properly are slim to none. Aluminum is the way to go because it can be worked, unlike carbon fiber. When the CS cars were being made the factory had literally hundreds of CF hoods available to fit to each car, and they chose the best fitting one per car. You won't have that opportunity.

The GTS hood comes from the F80/F82, and for most has the better shape. The CS hood is bespoke to the M2 CS, and has a much better (more rectangle) vent.

First 2 pix are GTS.
Second 2 are CS.

My buddy took a quick picture of my m2.
Nothing fancy, just sitting in a garage where he used to park his Corvette.

That long flag of the Cup240 is just so beautiful. LBB + 763M + PSCup240 = win, especially when lowered properly.
