M5 Competition engine cover
Hello,
I have a 2019 M5 Competition and was just doing some reading on the vehicle and noticed that the Competition model photos of the engine bay show a Carbon Fiber engine cover. Is this part of the Competition package or an after market product. If it is part of the Competition package mine did not come with it. The engine cover I have is plastic. |

The carbon fiber cover seems to be standard (or an option) on the M5 Comp destined for other countries. In the US, the cover you have is the only option.

If you really want it, I think you can purchase one from IND for $1200 or so.

The CF Cover is part of the BMW M Performance.
IMO, unless you are into a car show scene, it is not worth the price.

You'll get more hp out of RaceChip which is 3/4 the price of that engine cover.

The plastic lawn chairs might help on the seat ventilation that is sorely lacking currently.

Do you mean red, white, and blue light flashing on the rearview mirror?

From some of the posts, the dealers in the UK are willing to discount more...some have mentioned 22% discounts. How that equates to deals in the US, I have no idea.
