A protective screen for the engine oil cooler on the S55-powered F8X cars: the F80 M3, the F82 and F83 M4, and the F87 M2 Competition. On these cars the cooler sits behind the lower bumper opening, unprotected, in the direct path of road debris.
A holed oil cooler on an S55 is one of the more common and more expensive things that happens to a car of this age, and it tends to happen on exactly the kind of drive people buy these cars for. The guard screens the core against gravel while still letting through the air the cooler needs.
It is a protective part rather than a performance one. No tune is required, no emissions equipment is affected, and it ships to all 50 states.

Check the fitment table on the product page: it lists the chassis codes, engine codes and model years the part is sold for. If your car is not on it, or the page says the list is still being confirmed, message us with your chassis code, engine code and build date before ordering. A VIN makes it quicker still.
Every product page answers this directly. As a rule, downpipes need a tune and intakes, charge pipes and cooler guards do not. A downpipe on the factory calibration leaves the engine expecting a catalyst that is no longer there, which sets a check engine light and can put the car into reduced power.
It means the part removes or alters emissions equipment. It is not legal for sale or use on pollution-controlled motor vehicles and it is not CARB certified. Fitting one to a car driven on public roads is the owner's decision and the owner's responsibility. We do not ship these parts to California.
Yes. Choose local pickup at checkout and no shipping is charged. We are in South Florida and serve Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach. Wait for the ready email before making the trip. Picking up also means we can confirm fitment with you at the counter.
Orders ship from South Florida to all 50 states. Handling and transit times are on the shipping page. Oversized parts move as freight rather than parcel and cannot be delivered to a PO box; where that applies the product page says so and the surcharge appears in the cart before you pay.
