E90 LCI hood | alternative to OEM

The stock LCI hood looks better. I'm personally not a fan of vented hoods.

does the cf hood available without the vents? looks better without it

i think that's a great idea - no vents and price lower than
oem/

it'll be a good seller.

nver herd dat befre. i'm not even gona ask/[/QUOTE]

I bought M3 rep hood that was literrally same fitment. I did my homework and many china made CF parts do shrink bc of the cheap resin they use. I mounted the hood and it was a tight fit.. i kept it bc i bought for a good deal and after a few weeks, damn hood shrank quarter inch both sides the gaps opened up to oem fitment.. i thought they were doing the same

how much are they going for?
