Dinan engine cover - gorgeous work and easy DIY

I was lucky enough to become a fan of the BMW brand when I was a kid, and an E24 635csi absolutely stole my heart. I didn't know cars could be so cool until I saw one of those.

The other mark of excellence ever since that beginning was Dinan.: the big full page glossy ads in the Roundel, the upgrades, the performance and more. To me BMW was the best, and Dinan was the ultimate. I always dreamt of earning the Dinan badge on my car, and now that is finally coming true!

I have been lucky enough to partner with Dinan in an "earning the badge" series with my G87 M2, which will ultimately sport Dinan on the trunk when done. This really is a childhood bucket list item come true.

The start for me is the easiest, with the gorgeous CF engine cover, that does more than just replicate the OEM plastic design. The styling of this is distinctly different and sets the stage for other pieces that fit into the design.

Yeah, this is a long explanation for a short DIY video, but this is the beginning of something awesome as Dinan is reemerging to the BMW enthusiast market with bold new products.

Check it out and make sure to check out the rest of the series as they drop!

Dinan is currently offering their Black Friday sale so these are inexpensive at the moment. Very worth while.
