Made of plastic, this duct directs the flow of air through both the front bumper and the front hood grills on all 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 model E46 M3, which includes the E46 M3 coupe, convertible and CSL models.
The purpose is to channel air where it should be going, and away from where it's not needed, making it a critical part for both the aerodynamics of the E46 M3 as well as the cooling system. If your E46 M3 has suffered frontal crash damage and this front air duct has cracked or broken, we suggest replacement with this Genuine BMW replacement part. It's the same as you'd source from a dealer, but at a lower cost.
This is a Genuine BMW part, which assures you the best fitment and function on your E46 M3.
