Sagging Hood Insulator

[hoodpeter]

My 08 525i hood insulator is sagging. Any ideas how to fix it short of changing to a new piece? New piece price quoted was RM523.00 by Auto Bavaria and Bomin Auto.

that one kenot fix lah bro.unless maybe if you DIY by cutting a slit on the backside and slipping in a cardboard or something stiff.but this cud be a fire hazard coz normally the insulator is also a fire retardent material.best to cough up the dough and change new.

RM523 is hardly breaking the bank.

Found something else. Autocraft silent coat damper and absorbers... cost RM480.00.

Is this done at EA Autoworks? Saw a E60 going through that the other day. Is the insulation better than the stock one?

 

[hoodpeter]

Yes. Done at EA Autoworks. Definitely better than the stock one and more durable.
