Can an 08 M3 hood fit my 08 328i?

BimmrGirl · 03-24-2009, 03:58 PM

Hi guys, Id like to know if that is possible. I had an accident and my hood needs to be changed. So I was thinking since my car has the Mtech body kit I might like to get the M3 hood as well. What do you think? will it fit? The body shiop that I take my car to be fixed said the BMW M3 hood wont fit your car. I have heard there are dealers that make the hood to fit my model car? Can anyone help pls? Thank you !!!

I thought the M3 hood was a tad bit too long....

no the m3 hood is longer you would need to change the whole front end and fenders

1. No it does not directly fit.

2. Yes, you can make it fit....if you are willing to spend the $$$ on what it takes to achieve this.

3. No, most dealers will definitely NOT help you out here. Either go to bodyshop or go to LTBMW since you are in SoCal.

Hey what is that? and where can i get it? Do you have any pics of it?

I agree. Forget the M3 hood. If you want better, go Vorsteiner.

I think the carbon M3 style hood looks much better than that one ^

I think ******** one looks the best, i'm just waiting for his next shipment to arrive for the e90 and i'll be grabbing one!

SV Concepts · 03-25-2009, 06:07 PM

There's some confusion so please let me clarify:

Powerdome

V-35 Vented race hood

Sorry some of you guys don't like the V-35 - we designed it

gtrokin330 · 03-25-2009, 08:51 PM
