Best CF parts?

MattOne · 03-19-2010, 08:21 PM

My brother has an 09 335i that he left in my care while he is in Alaska and unfortunately with all the snow we had my carport collapsed with his car underneath. Long story short he is getting a new hood and trunk and he thought about cf but the BMW guy didn't sound to confident in installing them because he worried about fitment. My question is should he go with the cf parts and if so what would be a good brand that fits good and doesn't have any problems or should he just stick with the factory parts? Any info would be appreciated.

Pics of the crushed car?

What is he doing in Alaska?

There is often an issue with CF fitment if it isn't high quality.

There is one that shows the entire car. Its not completely crushed or anything. He is in the army and has been stationed in Alaska. So what would be a good quality brand for him to look into?

fitment isn't perfect, but it's not bad either :P
