This component serves as a protective guide and stopper for the hood locking assembly. It snaps over or sits alongside the catch mechanism to stabilize the hood when closed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003eBy taking up slack, it prevents the hood from vibrating, rattling, or twisting under heavy wind buffeting at highway speeds. Over time, these plastic and rubberized composite pieces take the brunt of engine heat and can become brittle, crack, or fall off during routine oil changes and maintenance. If they are missing or broken, you might notice panel gap misalignments between the hood and the front bumper, or annoying wind whistles while driving. Replacing them is a quick \"snap-in\" fix that ensures your engine bay stays sealed and quiet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003eVehicle Compatibility:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\"\u003e1 Series (F20 \/ F21):\u003c\/b\u003e 2011–2019\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\"\u003e2 Series (F22):\u003c\/b\u003e 2014–2021\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"4,2,0\"\u003e3 Series F30):\u003c\/b\u003e 2012–2019\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"4,3,0\"\u003e4 Series (F32 \/ F36):\u003c\/b\u003e 2014–2020\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"4,4,0\"\u003eX1 (F48):\u003c\/b\u003e 2015–2022\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"p-rc_0692783eeeb9cbce-97\" data-path-to-node=\"4,5,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"4,5,0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"citation-149 citation-end-149\"\u003eM-Power variants (F80 M3 \/ F82 M4 \/ F87 M2):\u003csup data-turn-source-index=\"1\" class=\"superscript\"\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e 2014–2021\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"Yjhzub\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003eMINI:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Clubman F54\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePosition:\u003c\/b\u003e Left or Right\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e Heavy-duty ABS \/ Polyamide\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BMW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48195221324015,"sku":"51237247079","price":125.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0769\/7183\/5631\/files\/2015-F30-3Series-Hood-Twist-Protector_2.png?v=1774394451","url":"https:\/\/myty.co.za\/products\/engine-hood-twist-protection-buffer-cover-bmw-1-2-3-4-series-f-chassis","provider":"MYTY Auto Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
