With the installation of the DINAN Aluminum Tower Strut and Stage 2 Supplemental Strut Bars, I had noticed that the OEM plastic engine covers with the longitudinal silver bars no longer seemed to visually appear fitting within the engine bay. In my opinion, these painted lines appear too busy while intersecting the strut bars. I do really like the aluminum finish on the DINAN Strut bars, but think the thin silver lines have to go….
Therefore, I was contemplating to aesthetically trim up engine bay a little bit, and to not go too much with the carbon fiber and/ or silver lines. I was just curious, has anyone installed carbon fiber engine & fuel rail covers? If so, please post pictures. Also, the other alternative I had in mind was to remove the plastic OEM engine covers and strip and/ or re-paint the silver bars all black, and to just leave the “BMW” silver letters untouched.
Your opinions will be greatly appreciated, should I go Carbon Fiber, do a re-finish, or neither?
