F90 Hood on G30?

Would the F90 hood fit on a G30? - Just curious, I really love the lines on the F90 hood. I'm sure it's too wide for a direct fit, but you never know.

Thanks!

Why did they make the G30 hood so plain looking? My previous F10's hood had great lines compared to my G30's hood.

Yes the f90 hood fits

I did a m5 conversion on my g30 but I still have the g30 hood cause I don't think it's worth spending 1k for two lines on the hood

Is that a stripe on the hood or a shadow?

but I'm not sure if I should

Well if you want my opinion, removing that stripe would take priority over removing the m5 badge on the grill. Stripes are for Hellcats.

the blank space behind the m5 badge is molded to the grill. you can remove the badge and leave the blank space behind it or you can replace the grill with an aftermarket one that's without the badge.

Bmw?
Have to get it sprayed up
Another cheaper option to get one off a car being parted out. Again would need preparation as it's bound not to be 100% perfect
