AS Style Carbon Fiber Hood

The VIS Racing AS Style hood is a premium exterior component crafted from 100% ISO-certified, Grade-A carbon fiber material, designed to enhance the aesthetics and performance of your BMW 5 Series F10 4-door (2011-2016). This hood utilizes a two-part construction process, featuring a top layer of carbon fiber bonded with high-grade epoxy resin and finished with an ultra-clear, UV-protective polyurethane coating for a high-gloss appearance. The underside is a smooth, one-piece shell that fuses to the top layer, significantly increasing the product's structural integrity. VIS Racing has further refined their manufacturing process with the Vacuum Infusion Process (V.I.P.), which produces parts that are 10-20% lighter while improving durability, a process they are transitioning to for their full spectrum of carbon parts. Installation requires the use of hood pins, and it is crucial to avoid reusing the stock hood strut, shocks, dampers, or springs, as these can potentially cause the hood to crack. This product is intended for off-road use unless local and state laws permit otherwise. All VIS Carbon Fiber Hoods and Trunks come with a VIS badge of authenticity, ensuring genuine quality. Compatibility is specified for a range of BMW 5 Series F10 models, including 520i, 528i, 530i, 535d, 535i, and M5 variants from 2011 through 2016.
