Dinan Carbon Fiber Engine Cover - BMW F97 X3M / F98 X4M (2020-2025)
SaleOpen the hood on your X3M or X4M and the S58 should be the star. Instead you get a plastic cover with stainless hardware, cables and tubes showing around the edges. For an M car, it looks unfinished.
The Dinan Carbon Fiber Engine Cover replaces the factory cover on the BMW F97 X3M and F98 X4M with gloss, UV-coated 2x2 twill carbon fiber. Dinan made it slightly larger than the factory piece so it hides the stainless steel hardware that sits in plain view in stock form. The result is a cleaner, more deliberate engine bay every time you lift the hood.
A Carbon Fiber Engine Cover Built to Stay Clean
This is 100% genuine carbon fiber, not a vinyl wrap or hydro-dipped plastic. The UV coating protects the gloss finish from fading under engine bay heat and sunlight. Powerful rare earth magnets hold it in place, so there are no visible fasteners on the cover, and getting to the air filters for service is easier than with the factory setup.
