The Podium V1 is a lightweight dry carbon grille for the BMW G80 M3 and G82 M4 that don't have Active Cruise Control. It's a two-piece design built for weight savings and track use, made from prepreg carbon fiber and cured in an autoclave, with a twill weave finish that replaces the factory grille outright.
Each half mounts to the original OEM locations through unibody carbon mounting tabs, so it installs securely with no cutting or drilling. It fits non-ACC cars only and works with parking sensors.
Real Dry Carbon, Not a Wrap
This is prepreg dry carbon fiber, cured under heat and pressure in an autoclave. That process squeezes out excess resin and air, so you get a part that's lighter and stronger than wet-layup carbon, with a clean twill weave and virtually no pinholes or air pockets under the clear coat. It isn't vinyl, hydro dip, or a printed carbon look.
Two-Piece Podium V1 Grille for the G80 M3 / G82 M4
The Podium V1 splits the grille into two pieces to keep weight to a minimum, which makes it a strong pick for track builds and anyone chasing weight savings. It shares its lightweight two-piece construction with the Motorsport V1, which is also available for cars with ACC. Compare all eight options in our G80 M3 / G82 M4 front grille guide.
