CSL Style trunks + What hood ?

Im looking into a New trunk and Hood , Been out to a few meets and noticed that some of these trunks on the E92 look very bad... the "duckbill" is short in height and comes out to far toward the end. Yet another one ive seen looked perfect .. it went out higher and didnt stick out to far back (toward the rear of the car) ... I regret not asking the guys who owned them which kind they were.

Any input that can steer me int he right direction ?

Also im looking for a hood as well... I really like the "dome" the M3 has.. so i was thinking about a M3 rep hood, besides that and the 2 vorsteiner Sculpyed dome hood and V35 hood what other options do we have ?

Thanks

IMO the Vorsteiner bootlid offers the best rear shape. Some of the other brands kick up too high and look off.





For the hood, Vorsteiner does offer a power dome hood if you like that look. We have one available at a discount as well under their Parts for Paint Program.



I prefer the V-35 Vented Hood, it's hard to beat this look:

Thanks for your order on the E92 CF Vented Hood. To finish it all off, I would recommend that you also check out the CSL style bootlid that we have available in FRP, 2x2 CF, and 1x1 CF. Here are a few shots of this amazing looking trunk installed my customer Mohammed's car for you guys to check out!
