The stock cowl is large, heavy, and obnoxious to remove when you're in the engine bay. Anything aft of the oil filter housing requires it to be removed, which is just a pain. The M3 cowl is contoured and is a 2 piece cowl, so you don't need to remove it to work in the engine bay. The stock piece is a monstrosity, I ditched it the first chance I got.
