Thinking about M2C GTS style carbon Fiber Hoods
Has anyone installed one of these? Issues or problems?

First link isnt valid, BTW. I do love that hood. I'd even get one in metal as opposed to CF. I think it makes the front end look even better!

Sorry about first link. I went to RW Carbon is where a GTS hood is. I'll check out steel BMW GTS hood for price and availability.

I'd be interested in the actual CS hood from BMW. OEM-ness and quality, and I actually really like the M2CS variant of the hood as it's specific to the M2 and not just a carry over from the M3/4 CS/GTS.

Why would BMW source the CF parts from Taiwan when they have very advanced CF manufacturing facilities at the same plant where the M2 is made - Leipzig?

You can get them from IND also, though not at a Taiwan discount https://ind-distribution.com/collect...arbon-gts-hood

A couple of vendors here in the US that sell them. Here's one of them that I've had a good experience with: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...612449807~bmp/ |
