Anybody in Australia interested in a BMS cowl filter group buy?

A group buy will help offset the huge shipping costs from the USA.

I think most were in the GB for the whole M3 cowl retrofit.

I had them for about 2 years, my experience is that don't run them if you are going to be driving through heavy rain and/or going through auto car washes. I find that water will get pass the raised edge of the filter and end up spilling into the AC vent and if worse enough will result in wet carpet on the passenger side.

I'm back to running stock cowl filters.

Thanks for the offer. Your message box isn't working.
I've decided to abort this plan after I ran some test without the cowl and found the fumes to be a bit of an issue. Thanks anyway.

I've had mine on for 2+ years and have never had a problem with water coming into the cabin. I have a Duke Dynamics bonnet though, so perhaps the water flows a little differently off the hood?

With an aftermarket intake it makes the turbo sound like it's spooling inside the dashboard. Super loud intake noise, which I'm a fan of. Everyone that rides in the car comments on it.

Very convenient having the cowl out of the way for messing around with JB4 wiring etc. and I've never experienced any unwanted smells in the cabin.

I'd buy them again.
