It was assumed that the air boxes on all of the B58 motors were identical so purchasing a filter for another B58 engine should hypothetically work.

Unfortunately, unconsidered variables caused the hypothesis to be incorrect, thus an incorrect air filter was purchased.

I similarly did the same thing by purchasing a filter for the A90 Supra when it wasn't listed for the G29 Z4. Thankfully, mine did fit because I thought of those variable that a different chassis could have a different filter.

OP made an honest mistake. Posting with the sole intention of belittling other members of the forum is Might I suggest instead of shaming others, be supportive and helpful. It makes the Bimmerpost community a much more enjoyable place to visit casually, come to for assistance and encourages others to not be afraid to ask a simple question

Stay classy my friends
