Been looking for this carbon fiber engine cover

gabrmdoom · 07-31-2019, 02:14 PM

If anyone has info on where to buy im interested. Ive seen them available for purchase for n/55/4 but not for any 40is. It pisses me off and would complete the look of my engine bay right next to my dinan cf cai.

You're probably better off getting your original engine cover covered in carbon fiber through a specialty shop. I have someone here local that specializes in this.

Yeah Hydrodipping your engine cover will be easier

If you're willing to ship your engine cover, it could be worthwhile. He mostly does steering wheels, but an engine cover seems even easier. Nelson Racing Wheel

You may be better off contacting him yourself. Google: Nelson Racing Wheel (Bimmerpost blocked his site's direct link).
That's also his IG handle. Check out his site and some of the work he's done.
