Description
The BMC Replacement Panel Air Filter Full Kit for the 2015+ Alpina B7 4.4 V8 is a direct replacement for the factory air filter, designed to increase airflow while providing highly efficient filtration.
BMC's replacement filters are engineered to allow a greater volume of air through the engine's original airbox while filtering contaminants down to approximately 7 microns, compared with approximately 10 microns for typical OEM filtration. This combination of increased airflow and efficient filtration helps support engine performance while maintaining protection against airborne contaminants.
The filter is manufactured using BMC's Full Moulding construction process, producing the filter frame from a single mold without welded joints. This design improves structural rigidity and helps prevent breakage during demanding use.
BMC uses multi-layered cotton gauze impregnated with low-viscosity oil and protected by an epoxy-coated alloy mesh. The mesh helps protect the filter material from fuel vapors and oxidation caused by humidity.
The filter comes pre-oiled and ready for installation and can be washed, re-oiled, and regenerated using the appropriate BMC cleaning and regeneration kit, allowing it to be reused rather than replaced like a conventional disposable paper filter.
Fitment
2015+ Alpina B7 4.4 V8
Application: Engine air intake / original factory airbox
Filter Type: Replacement panel air filter
Kit Configuration: Full kit / pair
BMC Part Number: FB930/01
The FB930/01 is also listed for select BMW applications, including:
2015–2019 BMW 750i / 750Li (G11/G12) – N63B44C
2017–2019 BMW M550i (G30) – N63B44C
Additional later BMW applications may use the same BMC filter depending on the specific vehicle configuration and engine code. Verify the vehicle application before ordering.

Filtration & Airflow Technology
BMC replacement air filters are designed to balance airflow and filtration efficiency. The multi-layer cotton gauze construction allows a high volume of intake air to pass through the filter while capturing fine contaminants before they reach the engine.
The filter media is treated with low-viscosity oil to improve its ability to capture airborne particles. An epoxy-coated alloy mesh surrounds the cotton gauze, providing additional protection against fuel vapors and oxidation caused by moisture and humidity.
BMC's Full Moulding manufacturing process creates the filter frame from a single mold without welded joints. This produces a rigid, durable structure designed to maintain its shape and sealing characteristics inside the factory airbox.
Reusable & Serviceable Design
Unlike disposable OEM-style paper filters, the BMC FB930/01 can be cleaned and regenerated for repeated use.
When the filter reaches its service saturation level, it can be washed and re-oiled using the appropriate BMC regeneration products. This allows the filter to be returned to service without replacing the entire filter element.
Installation
The BMC FB930/01 is designed as a direct replacement for the factory air filters and installs into the vehicle's original airbox.
No aftermarket intake system or major modification is required for the replacement filter installation.
