M Performance Parts aerial cover

BMW

Item No.: 10017431

Manufacturer No.: 65205A59AC9

The antenna cover made of aramid fiber-reinforced plastic is both a visual and functional highlight on the vehicle roof. Due to the extreme visual similarity between aramid fiber and carbon fiber, this product completes the "carbon" look of vehicles with carbon packages or other carbon exterior components. Since aramid has a high permeability to electromagnetic waves, the functionality of the antenna is maintained. Carbon, on the other hand, has a shielding effect and cannot be used for antenna trim. -The innovative material allows full functionality with a sporty, carbon look. -The antenna cover perfectly rounds off the carbon exterior portfolio. -The aramid antenna cover is particularly durable and corrosion-resistant. Material: -Aramid is the term used by BMW to describe the aramid fiber-reinforced plastic used for special accessory exterior components, similar to the term "carbon" for carbon fiber-reinforced plastic. -Aramid is a high-quality fiber composite material that closely resembles carbon fiber in its appearance and processing. Unlike carbon, the components made from it have high electromagnetic transmission. -Aramid has a lower density than carbon and is therefore even slightly lighter than carbon. -In the past, aramid fibers were used mainly in rallying (underbody protection) or sailing (carbon aramid hybrid sails) or in ballistic protection for bulletproof vests or armored vehicles.
