I dont think there's a pix of the GTS style hood yet since its still in development. I was told by Justin from Supreme that its going to be a couple more months.

Meantime, Here's the other hood they have out ...

I think if you were to paint it and leave the dome in carbon it would tone it down but still be aggressive

You guys are crazy to cheap out on a hood. It's one of the flattest panels on the car; every wave and imperfection will show up.

this is not an f30 is it?



I thought they sent me the pic of the painted one just to show what it looks like

they have told me the carbon one is made for the m4 and is made in Italy

Think this requires more research

Come on dude. You're about to get your M pass revoked.

Headlight and grilles are from F30; they're both boxier on the F30. Contour on bumper where headlight and grille meet are different. Hood line is different. Width of flare where fender and bumper meet are drastically different. Width of fender is different. Where'd the tow hook cover go?

You got to know that in Asia, there are tons of the "replica" kits that you can buy for your 320d.

They may indeed make a hood for the F8X, but why in the world would you buy from a seller that is willing to send you a pic of one of their half ass conversion F30 kits?

You HAVE to get an M3/M4 specific hood. Even the 4 series hood is different length than the M3/M4 hood.

It's late right now and I'm kind of cranky so I kinda wish you'd buy the hood so you can post how awful the experience was. I'll be like watching a reasonably smart guy get dooped by a Nigerian Prince. But I won't be that mean... so seriously, don't get the hood. I hope I helped you out.

Haha, this made me laugh

No one is going to cheap out on a hood, if you see the mods to both cars in question I think you will agree. I am simply looking to find out what is available and see which style I like. I will then move onto how good is the fit, finish and quality.

Oh yeah I think we were talking about that earlier. So that's what it looks like. Still though makes me wonder if Duke is the Manufacturer for that specific one.

I see. It makes me wonder when all these manufacturers will release these. Because Ehronius I know we talked about it earlier but isn't the one from Duke also still in "fitting or testing" stage and not full production?
