BMW M5 E39 (1998-2003) Prepreg Dry Carbon Fiber GTR Vented Hood
Engineered for BMW M5 E39 (1998-2003) owners, this GTR Prepreg Dry Carbon Fiber Vented Hood brings race-track aggression and engine-bay heat extraction to the iconic V8 super-sedan. Imported from leading manufacturers around the world and quality-controlled by BYC Performance, this hood bolts directly to OEM mounting points.
The M5 E39 is powered by the S62B50 4.9L V8 naturally-aspirated engine producing 400 hp: one of the purest NA M super-sedans in BMW history. This GTR-styled carbon hood is noticeably lighter than the OEM steel hood, reducing front-axle mass and improving thermal management.
Key Features
- GTR-Style Vent Channels: Race-derived aero geometry extracts engine-bay heat.
- Prepreg Dry Carbon Technology: Autoclave-cured under high heat and pressure, a more consistent weave.
- Lightweight: Noticeably lighter than the OEM steel hood. Improved front-axle balance.
- 2x2 Twill Weave: High-gloss UV-protective clear coat.
- Direct OEM Fit: Plug & play on M5 E39 (1998-2003) hinge and latch points.
- Thermal Benefit: Vent channels reduce engine bay temperatures at speed.
- Pre-LCI and LCI Fitment: All E39 M5 models 1998-2003.
