Does anyone know a company who sells a front hood for 2016-2018 M2 (pre-competition) with a power dome, no vents, no carbon fiber. I have not been able to find one anywhere. IMO, do not think anyone makes one as I have described.

All I can find is either carbon fiber hoods with or without vents, the OEM carbon fiber hood is approx $5k, just want a OEM looking hood with a power dome only.

Thanks

I remember there was one sold by a European company. Don't recall off hand, but someone probably does.

I want this too

This looks like what you're after. Not sure if they ship to the US. Maybe we could organize a "Group Buy"...

I would be in for it, if they ship more than 1 would make shipping cost cheaper instead of shipping just 1. Would like to see a more detailed picture though, material hood is made of, etc

[GoneIn4Secs]

I want it to look same as m3/4

[damills]

Me too but I dont think there is any company in the US that makes this style hood

I would love to have one at a resonable cost, just dont want to spend $5k on a carbon fiber hood from BMW only to paint it the color of my car.

I am hoping the 2020 cs or csl will have a non-carbon fiber hood that will fit all years of the M2 2016 and newer, hope BMW does leave us enthusiasts the ability to buy an aluminum hood with a power dome. They could sell at a higher price than a replacement hood, say $1500-$2000 range, bet they would sell a bunch of them.

Yeah Right

Now I'm wishing I still lived in Germany, this price includes the sales tax at 19%. Please let's make this a group buy!!!

Order one, live in Sweden. Let’s see what I get 🤓

[PS.08]

Also interested in this... Although I'm a bit skeptical about having to paint match on fiberglass vs aluminum. The potential weight savings could ease that sting though.

If you look at rhe evolve m2 gts build, they had a power dome hood which looked pretty good

That’s the Edison Composites carbon fiber GTS style hood. Great looking hood but the OP didn’t want carbon fiber

I am going to wait til the 2020 csl or whatever they call it has a power dome and find out if it will work on all f87. From what I have seen BMW fiber hood with a dome, fits all years. Hopefulle there will be no modifications to the front left, right fenders and front bumper so the hood will also fit f87 cars


5 grand is just too much to pay, I wished a company in the US made one but never have found one

Go to the IND thread and let them know this is what we want. Maybe they will listen.

I sent IND an email from the contact email address, here is their response

Hi Dean,
We are considering this at the moment. Right now I'm thinking GTS duct vs. Power dome. We will have a final decision next week.
Thanks,

Nate@IND

See above, who is interested in a carbon fiber hood for the M2 but not made out of carbon fiber, main benefit is it would have same power dome as the OEM M2 carbon fiber but made out of the same material as the hood on the cars right now.

Speak up, Nate from IND is looking into it, indicate your interest with a response you would be interested in a OEM M2 carbon fiber hood but not made out of carbon fiber

Thanks

Not the hood Im talking about, no vents, just a replica of the OEM M carbon hood but not carbon fiber. Hood made out of the material that is the same as current hood and a relplica

Thanks
