Anyone want a 1M hood buldge

AW 1M · 05-27-2011, 06:53 PM

How about this one from the Active E?

It's not my cup of tea but it should fit.

Wouldn't that sort of be like sticking a pair of socks in the front of your pants?

Not all Active E's have this hood bulge. The one I saw at the Welt a few months back did not have it.

and more pics here...

im thinking seibon carbon hoods - dont know about the fitting/tolerances though - an aftermarket hood would only be cool if it fits like an original part

but i am planning on leaving my 1m stock anyway - except for some bmw performance parts maybe

I like it on the M3. I think,it would look good on a 1M as well.

To all people saying this would be posing: so are your quad exhausts.

The picture I posted is from a showing of the Active E at an event this week for future owners. I think it is closer to the final version. I was told the bulge is to allow clearance for batteries up front. I suspect it wasn't planned but became necessary when the engineering was finalized.

Wouldn't the Icarbon one fight thats out there?

Since we are talking about the M3 style hood... how about these...

The PussyWagon’s M hood... seen at the Welt last weekend...

Carbon fiber hood made by Flossmann…

Dörr Motorsport's 135i racer as seen at the “Essen Motor Show” last year...

Are the pins required? I read that the icarbon hoods were designed to utilize the oem hardware... So would they need pins as well?

Sorry off topic but i have to know who makes the front lip on that blueish silver one?

A hood bulge may be nice, however the ones on the pics are too large IMHO.
