BMW M2 F87 | Prepreg Dry Carbon Fiber Trunk Lid

BMW M2 F87 Prepreg Dry Carbon Fiber Trunk Lid

Designed as a direct carbon fiber replacement for the OEM steel trunk lid, this BMW M2 F87 Prepreg Dry Carbon Fiber Trunk Lid removes meaningful mass from the rear axle while delivering the premium look of authentic carbon weave. Imported from leading manufacturers around the world and quality-controlled by BYC Performance, this BMW M2 F87 carbon trunk lid bolts to OEM hinge points and the factory latch mechanism, no cutting, no drilling, no modification.

If you're building a BMW M2 F87 tuning project and want a standard carbon replacement that preserves the OEM rear profile, without the CSL integrated ducktail or the MP-style spoiler, this dry carbon trunk lid is built for you. It is noticeably lighter than the OEM steel trunk lid, reducing rear-axle mass and improving dynamic balance for both the N55-powered M2 Coupé (370 hp) and the S55-powered M2 Competition / CS (410-444 hp). Note: this is not the CSL spec. The CSL trunk lid with integrated ducktail is available as a separate product in our catalog.

Key Features

• Prepreg Dry Carbon Technology: Pre-impregnated carbon plies cured in an autoclave under high heat and pressure for homogeneous resin distribution and a more consistent weave.
• OEM Profile Fidelity: Preserves the factory trunk silhouette. No CSL ducktail and no MP spoiler integration. Ideal for owners who want a clean, stock rear line.
• Noticeable Weight Reduction: Noticeably lighter than the OEM steel trunk lid; reduces rear-axle mass.
• OEM Hinge & Latch Compatible: Factory hinge points, latch, brake light, and license plate lighting transfer directly.
• 2x2 Twill Carbon Weave: Authentic carbon fiber pattern under a high-gloss UV-protective clear coat.
• Direct OEM Fit: Plug & play installation on factory M2 F87 mounting points.
• UV & Chemical Protection: Long-life clear coat protects against fading, cracking, fuel splash, and road tar.

Prepreg Dry Carbon vs. Wet Carbon: Which Is Better?

Most aftermarket carbon parts are made using wet lay-up, where resin is applied by hand and cured at room temperature, leaving air voids and inconsistent weight. Prepreg dry carbon:

• Cured in an autoclave under high heat and pressure → a more consistent weave
• A controlled resin ratio → lighter and more consistent structure
• The production method widely chosen in motorsport
• Minimal UV fading over years of use

Installation Notes

Installing the BMW M2 F87 carbon trunk lid requires professional installation. Steps:

6. Torque hinge bolts to the manufacturer's recommended torque, reconnect gas struts, and test all functions.
