Carbon Fiber Bonnet / Hood
Hi all,
Been thinking about this cabron fiber bonnet from Manhart Performance but it's designed for the M8 of course.. I'm wondering if anyone knows if the M8 F9x and 8 series G1x bonnets are interchangeable? Of course the M8 has some upfront changes but the headlights look the same as well as the bonnet itself.. just looking for some insight really! https://www.manhart-performance.de/s...-gtr-air-vents Thanks |

Might be worth calling or emailing Manhart as well.

Oh nice I'll have to check out G Power. I have emailed Manhart but no response yet.. according to oemparts.com the hood is the same on the G14, G15, G16, F91, F92 and F93! So that's good news at least, assuming it's correct of course.

I've had no problems with G Power And they have a shop distributor near me. The numbers look good and their parts look great. I've had good communication with them. But I haven't bought it yet. |

I got some very non descript info from Manhart. Wasn't impressed. I wanted to see the under side and how they deal with water coming in.
Got no where. Gave up. |

I have ManHart on my M8 and while I was in Florida raining season I didn’t face any problems because the engine is covered anyway so I don’t see any reason to worry about that

But for me water pouring into my engine compartment doesn't seem good. I do know there are some cover under there but Water will migrate all over under there. I just don't see this being good. I've never seen any OEM hood vents or slots without some type of water management underneath them. Imo there should be some trays attached to the hood with hoses to direct the water. |
