Carbon fiber side vents

ALF6172 · 12-29-2018, 08:14 PM

Anyone know of a place that makes carbon fiber side vents without the space for the badge? I'm trying to completely de-badge my F82 and the only options I've found have cutouts or plastic trim where the badge would go. Stores in North America are preferred, but beggars can't be choosy.

Only place I am aware of with CF side vents is IND and that has area for badges. Besides that it’s a 1x1 weave that does not match rest of BMW 2x2 weave so I passed on that as it was so different than mirror caps.

Yeah, that's all I've found too. Anyone recommend a good quality plain black vent?

I have looked too, no luck. You may have to find a company that is willing to do a one off piece

That's what I was afraid of. Thanks guys.

Hamann in Germany has them and they are super expensive.
I think VIVID Racing sells them in the US.

No I don't

IND fits fine as well.

Unfortunately, just like those, they are 1x1 weave that does not match other BMW Performance 2x2 weave.

ALF6172 · 01-11-2019, 08:06 AM

These paired with the trim from mod bargain might not look too bad. It's all 1x1, but I think I may give it a shot to see how it looks. Thanks again guys.
