Let your engine breathe better by replacing your boring factory air filter box with our 100% handmade carbon fiber air intake.

Wrapped in a flawless carbon weave, the intake is light weight, and designed to prevent heat from penetrating the shield thus keeping the air flowing in to the intake cooler than the rest of the air within the engine bay.

Performance gains vary from vehicle to vehicle but a noticeable audible “growl” by the intakes’ open concept is evident as well as the smoother acceleration across the power band. The air intake uses an easy-to-maintain cone filter which requires an approximate annual cleaning and “recharging” with an air filter kit. (Not included - Available from your local auto parts store)

Our carbon fiber takes also improve engine efficiency and fuel utilization.

We have air intakes available for all E46 models, E39 528, E60 M5 and E90 models. This product installs easily in minutes, and requires no permanent modifications to your vehicle.

This intake is not a GruppeM replica. This intake has a different sized cone filter, different carbon process, and also a different cover design as well as some technical changes.

At Bimmian, we pride ourselves in our ability to bring you the best quality parts, so we purchase only from companies that are capable of making great quality carbon fiber products. Due to the nature of carbon fiber and the difficulty and limitations of the manufacturing methods associated with its production, it is rarely possible to have a PERFECT item made from carbon fiber. During our quality inspection process, we reject any piece that has more than two minor defects per square foot of surface area. A minor defect may include, small wave or divot in the clear coat, small interruption in the carbon weave pattern, small gaps in between carbon threads, etc. Depending on the shape of the product, including sharp curves, angles, etc., it may be impossible to lay the carbon without distortion/interruption to the pattern. In this case, even though it may appear as if there is a flaw, it is actually part of the design and is present on every CF item. We will not be able to accept returns because of these minor defects.
