Jlevi SW | Vorsteiner V-35 Vented Hood (E92) Prototype Photos!

SV Concepts · 04-14-2008, 07:57 PM

For the E90, there will be no new hood.... although hopefully the E90 M3 Sedan Hood will fit your cars

It's nice. I'd buy it if it didn't have the two side cutouts.

SV Concepts III · 04-14-2008, 08:56 PM

We do have the power dome hood for those that don't want the vents

jlspeed29 · 04-14-2008, 08:59 PM

honestly, i'm not feelin it too much...maybe the middle vent but thats about it

maybe im a final run itl look different..or Bimmerfest perhaps

e92leon · 04-14-2008, 09:01 PM

looks like i'll be spending money on this too

gtrokin330 · 04-14-2008, 09:16 PM

Wait, i see you said a E92 CSL trunk is releasing this summer? If so, then what is that trunk vorsteiner has for sale now?

SV Concepts III · 04-14-2008, 10:43 PM

That's right, E92 boot is already available. E90 boot is coming this summer for the Sedan folks

Craig@SupremePower · 04-14-2008, 10:45 PM

Pretty cool but I think I prefer the power dome hood...

cipher5 · 04-14-2008, 10:53 PM

Correct me if I'm wrong, maybe its the angle of the pic, but the center vent seems too far back, I thought the heat is closer to the Roundel.

We have reserved the 1st and 2nd spots in production, but Long Tran will probably be the first to have it on his car because he helped a lot with measurements and test fitting!

We had to move it back a couple of inches past where we wanted it, because it won't clear the motor anywhere else. We also had to make it a little bit more shallow than we wanted... unfortunate, but we think it works very well.

There was no way to make it as close to the roundel as we wanted, without building the hood up.

Luckily, we found that the heat escapes the hood very well, even when the car is stationary, and if you are in motion, the air going through the kidney grilles will help push hot air out. We think it's a good solution.

to paint or not to paint, that is the question

SV Concepts III · 04-15-2008, 07:40 AM

I vote for partial paint

I really doubt they want to do anything else for sedan. Particularly b/c facelift E90 will have a different hood due to changes in front grilles. But I guess if people are willing to wait and PAY for it...its not completely out of the question.
