As title, looking to buy a CF M3 bonnet for my pre LCI E93. I can't find one in Australia regardless of cost. I don't like the Seibon one as the vents are different and look pretty shit house. I would get the Mars Performance one, but they don't have it in stock and it's "Presale"on their website and they haven't replied to my emails for 48 hours now. I also asked Jason from Euro Division, but they no longer carry them.

If anyone knows where I can get one locally, that would be awesome. It has to be unpainted as I want to paint it and leave the power dome exposed.

I was going to suggest the peeps you listed above, Mars is still your best bet mate, or you could try JD

Meanwhile you can try Car Shine here in Melb

Hahah I'm not so cashed up right now for various reasons! Trying to save where I can. Plus being CF, I am worried about the various package handlers just throwing the bonnet around and damaging it during freight. At least locally landed stock is inspected and ready to go. I also don't completely trust the quality of all the chinese manufacturers. I can know at least the Mars Performance and Euro Division offerings have a good reputation. But having said that, both companies have now told me that their original sourcve has ceased manufacturign this product and they both obviously have the same concerns as me with sourcing from another supplier - unknown quality. Looks Like I am gonna be forced to get either the Vorsteiner style bonnet or the Seibon Carbon branded one that has the ugly ass vents.

Yeah and they charge about $800 USD when I had a quick glance. And still charge about $600 USD for the bonnet. Ain't cheap at all. Quality and fitment is still gonna be my biggest concern.

Thanks dude! Can't tell from my phone if the bonnet has been painted or not. Sent him a message

[DR-JEKL]

Hopefully Kent's not drunk as I could see him buying that whole car for the bonnet!

[T1M]

I think the guy selling the car might be drunk "Feel free to bring ur Micanic for inspection"

[JB4-335]

Can't believe how expensive it is to get one of these bonnet's nowadays.

So glad I got mine when I did a few years ago. It may be the only aftermarket part that will sell for more than it was purchased for.

BTW I'm selling a E92 M3 style bonnet in carbon fiber to fit a 335i for $2500

Haha! Nah mine's still in CF. From memory it was $1200 shipped.

Price has been increased to $2995 plus $499 for delivery and pick up anywhere in Australia. Clearly you can tell I'm in sales with this new price point.

wow that's cheap. where from?
looks like Mars Performance can ship one in for me for $1800but will take 8 weeks and won't post from Melbourne. JC Sportline can ship one to me for $1100 USD all up. Will probably be hit with GST and import duty when it arrives though

Jason@ Eurodivision.

I don't know which would be the better option. I'd probably say Mars but then you'll need to go for a long drive to pick it up. Bloody not so easy to get a bonnet these days.

I bought JC goods. Quality can be bad where the coat was not done perfectly! Bought a CF spoiler which is on sale now on gumtree because it's not perfect. Stick with Mars
