Description
Unlock Race-Inspired Performance: The Alpha N Carbon Fiber Hood for the BMW G8X M3 and M4 brings advanced materials and track-tested design to your vehicle. Drawing inspiration from the M4 GT3 race car, this vented carbon fiber hood not only enhances your car's appearance but also delivers significant performance benefits with a weight reduction of 40% compared to the factory hood.
Lightweight & Durable Construction: Constructed entirely from high-quality carbon fiber with an additional layer of Kevlar reinforcement on the inside, the Alpha N hood is engineered for ultimate stability and strength. The combination of carbon fiber and Kevlar results in a hood that weighs just 17 lbs, a significant improvement over the 28 lbs of the OEM aluminum hood. This reduced weight improves vehicle dynamics by lowering the center of gravity, enhancing handling, acceleration, and overall performance.
Design Features:
-
Vented for Cooling: Drawing cues from the M4 GT3, this hood features integrated vents designed to optimize airflow and cooling, helping to keep your engine temperatures lower during high-performance driving.
-
Customizable Finish: While the raw carbon fiber finish provides a striking, aggressive appearance, paint or clear coat is required for installation to achieve a flawless final look. Alpha N components are designed with minimal weight and maximum strength in mind, so they do not include unnecessary layers like fiberglass or thick resin, which can compromise both weight and rigidity.
Optional Vent Mesh: Customize your hood further with optional vent mesh. These meshes are made-to-order, offering flexibility in your build and ensuring the perfect fit for your needs.
Key Benefits:
- 40% weight reduction from OEM hood
- Kevlar reinforcement for enhanced strength and stability
- Race-inspired vented design for optimized airflow
- Professional-grade construction for maximum performance
- Fits OE mounting points for straightforward installation
- 17 lbs total weight for improved handling and performance
Important Installation Notes:
- The Alpha N hood is crafted for professional prep and installation. Due to its ultra-lightweight, high-performance design, the hood does not feature filler materials or fiberglass. Applying a clear coat without proper prep may highlight surface imperfections typical of raw carbon fiber.
