My cold air intake

just bought this car and would like to replace the Cold Air Intake filters. It's a 2007 335i and I don't have any info on the filters. Anybody have a part number on the filters??

They may be the BMS DCIs (http://www.burgertuning.com/white_dcintake.html) -- can't quite tell from the picture. But why replace them? Pick up an air filter cleaner / oil kit if they're dirty. The only problem is you'll need to find one that has clear oil instead of the typical red or blue unless you want a different look.

+1 these are dual cone intakes. Replacement filters can be had from the mentioned website for very cheap.

If you're searching for cold air intake, you're likely to find very little and something very different as yours isn't a true col air intake system.

Those look similar to the BMS and Vishnu intakes.

Those look like S&B filters which are what BMS uses.

We'll have our DCI setup ready in the next couple of weeks using the same filters Cobb and a few other big boys use but both replacement filters can be had for about $40 a piece shipped S&B.

Mine as well be somewhat helpful.

Those are BMS white filters. I believe S&B is the actual manufacturer.

Or the Dinan CAI. Thats basically a dual cone CAI setup.

But yes this photo looks like the BMS setup and you can either clean those or get new ones. Both options fairly cheap.
