And they are done!!!!!
Wet sanded down to 400 grit 3 coats of clear Thank you everyone for your positive responses! Now on to the next project (might be the dual inlet air box off an Australian x5 to wrap in carbon fiber) Last edited by X5Brian; 01-02-2022 at 10:24 AM.. |

Just noticed my back passenger side is about 0.5 inches lower than driver side. Anyone else have this happen with their springs? Have 70k miles on her. Looks like it’s time to order coilovers today

Thank you! Means a lot! The dual inlet air intake is on its way… gonna graft it to the single tube and glass it, then carbon fiber the whole thing.

You might have just inspired me to try overlays myself, I have wanted to for quite some time. Do you recall the name of the video you used to learn from?

So got my dual intake duct from Aus. But it's missing the screen vents to connect to radiator openings for cold air. Can someone please tell me what they are called per BMW so I can order them! Without these clips the openings are too large and duct will not stay in place.

Not sure if it pulls more air but can't hurt. I actually bought a second single duct and I'm gonna cut and fiberglass them together for a clean "stock" look as I don't like the rubber hose connection I have seen others do…: not knocking anyone !!!!!
Then I will carbon fiber overlay the whole thing. I'll take and send pics along the way. |

New project :
Dual air duct in beautiful carbon fiber. Bought duct and a single duct. Cut both to make a even transition and to take out where single duct flattens out and can limit air flow. Glassed them together so far. More pics tomorrow |
