aFe 54-11478-R is the matte red powder-coated aluminum Dynamic Air Scoop pair for the specified BMW E9X front inlet arrangement. One driver and one passenger scoop route frontal air through the original kidney-grille area toward the factory intake snorkel. Only the selected-color pair is supplied; the original duct cover, plastic pins, T25 screws and grilles are reused.
Current exact manufacturer identifies E9X 3-Series 2006-2013 inline-six and M3 2008-2013 V8 applications. Original named groups and their model-specific bounds are preserved, including 335d diesel, xDrive/xi and M3 rows; these are front-inlet accessories rather than engine tubes. The missing genuine 335is Base 2011-2013 group is restored from exact selected-color retailer tables, including E92/E93 body qualification. Match the actual E90/E91/E92/E93 grille and inlet arrangement for the named model; 2012-2013 broad model years do not certify F30 or other later chassis. No four-cylinder, new diesel engine, earlier M3 year, special edition or unrelated body is inferred from a generic widget. Broader international retailer rows and inconsistent engine/fuel labels remain source holds rather than expanded applications.

The six color alternatives in the shared bill are not twelve supplied scoops. Only the selected-color driver/passenger pair is included. No T25 bit, replacement pin, screw, filter, coupler, intake tube, sensor or airbox is listed. The blue pair in shared-manual illustrations is illustrative for the common procedure, not the color supplied with every part number. Retain the original duct cover, pins, screws and grilles.
aFe Power develops application-specific intake, filtration, exhaust, cooling, tuning, suspension, drivetrain, and truck-performance components supported by product testing and documented installation requirements.
One matte red driver scoop 05-01016R and one matching passenger scoop 05-01017R. Other colors in the shared bill are alternatives, not extra contents.
Does the pair include a filter, coupler or Torx bit?No. The exact bill lists only the two scoops. Reuse the original pins and screws and provide the required T25 and flat-head tools.
Which chassis and M3 years apply?Current manufacturer names E9X 3-Series 2006-2013 inline-six and E9X M3 2008-2013 V8 applications, with named-model bounds below. Broad years do not certify F30 or another chassis.
Is the selected color blue because the manual photo is blue?The shared illustration shows blue, but the exact selected part and color-specific bill determine the supplied finish. This listing supplies matte red aluminum scoops.
How are the grilles and duct fasteners handled?Release both kidney grilles from behind, save the original duct pins and T25 screws, and restore them after positioning the scoops. Align grille tabs and press until securely snapped in place.
Why is an assistant required?One person holds the scoops with their tabs on the plastic support while the other reinstalls the cover and original pins. Pin clips must pass through the holes in the scoops.
Is California approval or a numeric power gain provided?The exact primary and manual state not CARB exempt and restrict California purchase and California-registered use. No numeric flow, dyno or temperature report is linked.
What battery, torque and recheck instructions apply?Follow the manual negative-battery instruction and restore the battery after work using the vehicle procedure. The exact manual provides no numeric torque or mileage interval.
Verify aFe 54-11478-R. Read all 12 pages of the exact shared manual and verify the selected-color driver/passenger pair. Let the engine cool and follow the negative-battery disconnection instruction. Remove and save the T25 screws from the ram-air duct. Carefully pry and push up the plastic pins on both sides with a flat-head screwdriver; save them, then remove the air inlet duct. Reach behind each kidney grille and release its push clips to remove both grilles. Position the selected driver and passenger scoops with tabs on the plastic support. Have an assistant hold the scoops while the other person reinstalls the original cover and plastic pins, ensuring the pin clips pass through the scoop holes. Reinstall the original T25 screws. Align the grille tabs and push until they snap into place. The manual ends without a separate battery-restoration instruction; restore the battery after work using the vehicle service procedure. No numeric torque or mileage recheck interval is provided.
Each exact current primary was read. All 12 pages, the complete two-position/six-color bill and figures A-E in the three manufacturer-linked manuals were reviewed; all three files have identical SHA1 bb97e8c988f25229fd64296a1067d0cdb9a4d74f. Only the selected-color pair is supplied, despite shared blue illustrations and generic filter/coupler flags. Exact selected-color retailer tables restore one missing 335is group per product without widening original model-year bounds. Original diesel, xi/xDrive and M3 coverage remains qualified by the actual E9X front inlet; no related-engine or later-chassis inference is used. International four-cylinder and inconsistent fuel/engine labels are held. This is an aluminum accessory pair, not a full intake, filter or electronic module. Current manufacturer and shared manual apply their non-CARB California restriction; no parent-intake exemption is borrowed. No linked flow, dyno or measured temperature report certifies numerical gains. No new fasteners, supplied tool, torque or mileage interval is invented. Turn14 authenticated exact-product access remains unavailable. Pricing and protected commercial fields remain unchanged.
