Unlock faster, cooler airflow straight through your BMW kidney grilles with the Basic Carbon Aluminium Embedded Air Scoop for the 6-cylinder BMW 1 Series E8x platform. This intake scoop increases the velocity of incoming air to the factory airbox, feeding your N52 or N54 engine with a stronger stream of cool, dense air for sharper response and dependable performance on the road.
