BMW G8x Oil Cooler Guard
In Stock: Ships in 1-2 business days
Available to Order: Arrives June 9, 2026
Looking to protect one of the most exposed and vulnerable components on your G8X?
From the factory, the oil cooler sits low and directly in the path of road debris — with minimal protection between it and whatever the road throws at it.
A single impact from a rock, debris, or tire chunk can puncture the cooler — instantly draining oil and potentially causing catastrophic engine damage.
The Automaz Collective Oil Cooler Guard is designed to eliminate that risk — adding real protection without compromising airflow or OEM design.
Protection.
Confidence.
OEM+ peace of mind.

Why this Oil Cooler Guard
On the G8X platform, the oil cooler is positioned in a way that leaves it exposed to direct impact from below and through the front airflow path.
Real-world owner experiences show:
- Guards often take visible hits from debris that would have otherwise damaged the cooler
- A punctured oil cooler can dump all engine oil quickly, risking major engine failure
- Many owners install a guard immediately after delivery as cheap insurance
This isn’t about “if” — it’s about protecting against the one scenario you can’t control.
The Automaz Collective guard is designed with:
- Structural rigidity to deflect real impacts (not just mesh protection)
- Strategic cutouts to maintain proper airflow
- Coverage where the OEM leaves gaps
Because protection should never come at the cost of performance.

This is one of those mods you don’t think about — until it’s too late.
The G8X is an $80K–$100K+ platform. Leaving a critical cooling component exposed just doesn’t make sense.
This guard doesn’t change the look of the car.
It doesn’t add unnecessary complexity.
It simply adds protection where BMW didn’t.
OEM+ isn’t just about looks — it’s about smart upgrades that protect your build long-term.
