What Color Are the M3 GTS Hood Vents

dpeete · 11-10-2022, 10:53 PM

As the title says, what color are the hood vents? I can’t tell if they are painted black, gloss back or are carbon fiber? Going for the OEM+ look and would like to go the GTS route. Thanks!

Thank you, I am good with the black chrome on those parts… I am talking about the two hood vents that also have back surrounds. One is a plug, the other is part of the air intake system. Both are dark and I can’t tell if that is gloss, matte or carbon.

Based on the picture they are almost certainly gloss black

Yea, I'm pretty sure they're gloss black
