Hi,

I am making enquiries about replacing my hood. It is currently black, but was originally blue as it has option "391 - dark blue hood" on the vehicle specification sheet. I would like to put it back to it's original colour.

Speaking with one company they said "your car would have been supplied with a royal blue coloured hood", not the dark, nearly navy coloured hood as I thought. Were other shades available on individual (which mine is) or Z3M cars?

Can anyone confirm that an option 391 hood is the dark (nearly navy) blue hood?

Many thanks for any help.

Many thanks. Don't think I have ever seen a car fitted with a dark gray or turquoise hood, but there must be some out there somewhere!

I am sure in the future some millennial will pay top money for one, because ra-ri-tyyyy.
