Can anyone lend me a pair of kidney grills (dont care what colour) for an E92. Im fairly sure that the M3 grills are the same as the all the E92 3 series?? I dont mind if they are damaged etc - as long as they fit. Reason i need to "borrow" them is that im aiming to get mine sprayed and they need to be off the car for about a week - and as i use my car daily i cant drive around without grills!! I will obviously pay for all postage and return them in the same condition as i am given them. If anyone can assist me i'd be most grateful.
Many thanks. Steve

[Steve748]

I have some chrome ones you can borrow, also I have some matte ones that I would like to have sprayed too. Are you going for gloss black by any chance?
If so I would be happy to pay 1/2 the cost and postage too!

lol

pick me!

i only want the matte black surrounds painted. are you worried about it chipping at all?

[Hoops]

Funnily enough - im having my original chrome finish kidneys sprayed MATT black!!!! I considered spraying them and the other bits gloss black but ive decided to go with a MATT/flat black theme throughout.
Steve748 - i will take your chrome grills if the offer is there.
Or.. Kin you could just kindly give me your matt ones!!!?

[Hoops]

Anyone know where i can get matt black kidneys as cheap as possible???

[Steve748]

My matte black ones have a space grey surround! I can post either or both off to you if you let me have your address.......

Much appreciated J - lets speak over weekend and if i can make the meet on sunday maybe i can get the grills then?? Bet you're excited about fitting the new zorst, eh!!?

http://www.plastidip.co.uk/......its a spray that turns to plastic once it drys and it lasts foreveror so they say...cant be sure because my grill havent seen forever yet but so far so good......

if i ever have any problems with the way they look in the future......ill just take em off and respray....the stuff takes about 30 mins to dry and looks gooood.

If you still need a set you can borrow my original ones that are in my garage.
