Here's the story...
I wanted to retrofit my OEM Engine cover with a DINAN CF part, so during my search I had found out that the part was no longer manufactured and sold by DINAN. However, and as a result of my searching around, I was fortunate to find and buy a new and genuine DINAN Carbon Fiber Engine cover from an E36 owner. It was never installed by the previous seller or by me...
Since, I originally wanted the entire DINAN set to complete my engine, and I also could not locate the matching DINAN fuel rail cover, I have decided to just sell the DINAN part, and to install my Carbonio CF covers instead....
The DINAN part number indicates that it is for an E36, and will fit both the M52, S52 motors (OBD2), but it can also fit an M54 E46 engine. When I purchased the cover, it did not come with the mounting accessories. However, I called DINAN technical support, and I was told that mounts can be easily made by using OEM rubber engine mounts and purchasing flat/conical head screws, and with some minor adjusting, a fitted install can be accomplished. I have to admit I am just too lazy to do the DIY...
This DINAN Engine Cover had individually retailed for over $400.00, I will sell it for $250.00 + shipping... :buttrock
PM me, if anyone is interested…and get it before Bimmerfest....
