vrs hood vents wrapped?

i am getting a vrs hood for e90 and want to have the vents wrapped in black the question is will the engine heat melt the wrap or bubble it or is it just better to paint it?

I don't think there is a V35 hood for E90 from VRS... there maybe reps for E90.

I see you edited your original post to remove the 'V35' bits.

Anyway, to answer your question, if you pick the closed vent hood, then I don't think you will have problem with the vinyl.

No idea about the open vent version...

Is this new or used? You can order it closed...
