So I need to get a new hood to replace my damaged one and I have the opportunity to get an S model one, which from my searching around I hear will fit no problem apart from needing an S grill.

My question is the hood says it fits S models from 2002-2008. Mine is an 08 but I thought that the body styles changed after 06. Does it sound right that this will be compatible 02-08?

Thanks in advanced!!

 

i think the later years is the convertible version, so it wont fit

 

So the previous generation of convertible S carried over into the R56 generation?

 

1st gen R52's were made until 08 then they changed to the R57

 

the convertibles stayed supercharged up to 08. so yeah.
i would bet 99.9% sure that the hood wouldnt fit if it says it will fit an 02

 

But if he has an 08' R56, why is he looking at the part number for an R52/3 bonnet ?

Wont an R56 bonnet from an 09' S model fit ?

 

Yeah it will. But if it says 02-X it's not going to. Just find a newer one.
