E46 Hood Vents - Small

Releasing heat through the hood/bonnet of a car is a great way to reduce engine bay temps, front lift and promote airflow through the radiator for more efficient cooling.

The CMP hood vents are installed from beneath with either rivets or epoxy and designed specially for the E46 chassis to maintain under bonnet airflow where it is needed then expel it directly above the exhaust manifold to promote natural convection at a stand still. 

This vent option suits all E46's and is a smaller than our M3 only option yet retains the same cut profile and rivet locations should you wish to start small and upgrade down the track. 

Installation is as simple as lining up the vent tabs against the bonnet bracing to take the guess work out of getting the correct position and angle followed by drilling some holes and connecting the dots with a rotary tool before bending to the desired angle of attack and painting.
