Need Hood Vent Mesh (Insides)

Xx__xs · 02-08-2012, 09:50 PM

Hey guys, local car wash place ruined my hood vent innards with their wax and now its all white inside the vent..its a pain to clean it so I would rather just buy a replacement. IND, jlevisw, nobody sells the insides. Where can I find them?

Just to clear it up Im not talking about this

Xx__xs · 02-08-2012, 11:12 PM

Is the only way to buy it from the dealer?

they cost about 10-15 bucks at your dealer... so where's the problem???

If they're just clogged up with wax a little nylon brush and some type of cleaner fluid will clean them right up.....

We sell them for 17.89 each. bmwpartspros.com just plug in the part number.

Why would you take it to a car wash?..you must not care about your paint and trim too much

kmarei · 03-12-2012, 06:54 PM

did you try letting them soak overnight in warm water mixed with dishwashing soap?

When I had my car detailed they double mask taped my hood vents and trim. I would have a conversation with them.. thats unacceptable.
