M-Performance Carbon Fiber... *SIGH*... Gas Cap Cover

[Igor_M5]

Yes, it's OEM... and I couldn't believe it so much that I had to inform the public to get a kick from the replies.

Funny thing is... it's either BMW kept it under wraps from the NA market, or any market for that matter because it's just embarrassing .... or I wasn't supposed to come across this yet.

Seems like it's for Pre-Order only right now... but, this guy probably stole it from somewhere because it's available here in the US, today, for $200. (If you buy it, keep it between yourself.... and your gas attendant, kthx) - edit: actually I'm certain he's selling a pre-order since delivery eta is end of April.

For real, like... 1x n95 and a bottle of purell.

Added chassis rigidity and weight savings from this must be amazing. lol

[RugbyBro]

$200 for a gas cap?! Or $200 for a down payment on a tiger

[Igor_M5]

Perhaps it's a sign that we should enjoy gasoline while we still can? Lol

[quikM2]

seriously I would buy this and park my car on a busy street and open the cover so everyone on the sidewalk can see it and drool of how cool and fast my car is

[BzsBimmer]

Not even a replacement gas cap. It’s just a covering to go over the original so it actually adds weight!!

Gone are the days of BMW Performance bumpers, intakes, cooling packages, and recaro bucket seats... Now we get more often than not tacky carbon fiber add-ons, tire covers and gas caps.

To be fair, though, Porsche sells a fake Aluminium gas caps too.

[porshah]

Dollar to HP gain ratio is terrible, so I would not buy lol.

[six75LT]

what kind of lap time improvements should i expect with this?

Be a better person, donate to the charity of your choice.

[flipnkraut]

Wait hold on. This is a $200 gas cap cap. Not even an actual gas cap. But a stick on cover? What in the holy autozone hell.

Google translate says

(The tank cap itself is not included in the scope of delivery!

Note: The cap is attached to the existing tank cap.

It also 85€ (still high for a sticker but not $200)

[agentrnge]

I know what we need.. Carbon fiber windows!

[NSX2M4]

Better gimme some sucky sucky for that!

[Aaaaaaaaa]

Almost as good as the self centering wheel caps
