{"product_id":"alpha-n-g87-m2-carbon-vented-hood","title":"Alpha-N G87 M2 Carbon Vented Hood","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Alpha-N G87 M2 Carbon Vented Hood delivers true motorsport-inspired engineering for the latest BMW M2. Developed and manufactured in Germany by Alpha-N, a carbon fiber specialist known for its deep ties to BMW motorsport programs, this lightweight hood enhances both the performance and visual presence of the G87 platform. Constructed entirely from pre-preg carbon fiber sourced from Italy, the hood combines aggressive motorsport styling with functional thermal management to support demanding driving conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing inspiration from Alpha-N’s previous GTS-style designs and BMW’s own limited-production M models, the vented hood features a full-width extraction vent positioned directly above the radiator. This placement allows hot air to escape efficiently from the engine bay, reducing heat soak and improving airflow through the front cooling system. When paired with Alpha-N’s carbon front grille, the design further improves airflow efficiency and thermal stability during spirited driving and track use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hood is produced using high-quality pre-preg carbon fiber construction with an additional Kevlar reinforcement layer on the inner structure to increase rigidity while maintaining minimal weight. The result is a lightweight panel weighing approximately 19 lbs, reducing weight by roughly 7.5 lbs compared to the factory hood. Alpha-N’s manufacturing approach prioritizes strength and structural integrity without relying on heavy fillers or thick resin layers that can add unnecessary mass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Alpha-N hood is supplied in a raw carbon finish and is intended for professional preparation and paint prior to installation. Because the components are engineered for maximum strength and minimal weight, they do not include cosmetic filler layers that typically smooth the surface of painted panels. Professional body shop preparation ensures the best final appearance while maintaining the integrity of the carbon fiber structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for the BMW G87 M2 with motorsport-inspired vented design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull carbon fiber hood constructed from premium pre-preg carbon fiber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKevlar reinforcement layer on the inner structure for increased rigidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrategically placed full-width heat extraction vent above the radiator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves airflow and thermal management within the engine bay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximately 19 lbs total weight, roughly 7.5 lbs lighter than the factory hood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2x2 twill carbon fiber construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured in Germany by Alpha-N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaw carbon finish requiring professional paint or clear coating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional carbon vent insert available separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevious SKUs: AN-G8705 \/ AN-G8706\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIND SKU: AN-0301\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVehicle Applications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ind-distribution.com\/collections\/m2-g87\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBMW G87 M2\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ind-distribution.com\/collections\/2-series-g42\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBMW G42 2-Series\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptional Components\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon hood front vent insert (optional): \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ind-distribution.com\/products\/alpha-n-g87-m2-carbon-hood-front-vent-insert?variant=44652741689540\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eView carbon vent insert\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis component ships in raw carbon fiber and requires professional paint or clear coating prior to installation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlpha-N raw carbon body panels prioritize strength and minimal weight, and therefore do not include cosmetic fillers or heavy resin layers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfessional body preparation and installation are strongly recommended\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDue to normal vehicle manufacturing tolerances, minor adjustments during installation may be required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotorsport\/export component; road legality may vary by region and is the responsibility of the customer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured in Germany using high-quality pre-preg carbon fiber materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Alpha-N","offers":[{"title":"No (AN-0301)","offer_id":51458029289636,"sku":"AN-0301","price":6427.85,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Yes Hood with Carbon Front Vent (AN-0302)","offer_id":51458029322404,"sku":"AN-0316","price":7564.7,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0013\/9929\/1964\/files\/Alpha-N-G87-M2-Carbon-Vented-Hood-White-Background.jpg?v=1787846734","url":"https:\/\/www.amtuning.ca\/products\/alpha-n-g87-m2-carbon-vented-hood","provider":"AM Tuning Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
