The G8x M3 and M4 cars are incredibly well sorted from a cooling standpoint. Even in a road course environment with extremely high ambient temperatures, the S58 engine tends to operate beautifully, with consistent oil and water temperatures. Although excellent ducting, good core design, strong fans, and other factors all play into how well a cooling system works, there is one ultimate factor that cannot be circumvented- you must have enough heat exchanger surface area, and you must have enough heat exchangers. A direct impact on the oil cooler can have catastrophic effects, draining the S58 of all of its oil in seconds, a fact that more than a handful of previous generation M3 and M4 owners have had to learn in a painfully direct way. When examining the front of an M3 or M4, then, we see the hard work of the M engineers in packaging the various cooling components of the car. Everything had to be accounted for, and given ample space, surface area, and ducting. Unfortunately, this leaves the S58 engine’s oil cooler precariously exposed with no protection.

Since 2010, Advanced Auto Fabrication has been producing and developing both parts and full fledged race cars. Their knowledge base covers a wide range of vehicles both domestic and imported. In the specific case of BMW, the team at AAF has a particular affinity for building and designing components for BMW race cars. E30 race engines can be expensive, so protect your investment! AAF's skid plates have proven their durability on the track. Made from precision cut steel plate, welded in house at AAF, and Powder coated for the most robust surface finish. The AAF E30 Skid Plate is a MUST-HAVE for all PRO3 and E30 Race cars. This skid plate does not use steering rack bolts, so the skid plate can be taken on and off without removing critical bolts or changing wheel alignment like other skid plates. Made specifically for an M20, (with a dimpled relief for the oil drain port, and strong gussets on both sides of the oil pan) but can be used on any E30. Includes a nut plate for ease of installation. Comes with all required hardware. Some drilling required.
