BMW Performance front grille in black

BzzzBom · 03-25-2009, 11:46 AM

Has anyone installed the BMW Performance front grille in black on their 3 series coupe or sedan? It has been on the BMW.com website for about two weeks. I have a 2009 335i coupe on order (April delivery) and am considering this option. Thanks!

I asked my parts guy and he said they were $101 each.

Way too expensive imo. It's just easier the paint them yourself with a $7 spray paint.

Haven't seen it yet.

i dont see how it could be better than aftermarket

Tischer has them for like $55 each... I installed a set on my friends LCI e90. They flow with the shadowline window trim really good.

Did BMW ever make black grills for the pre-LCI E90? I've only ever seen the aftermarket ones.

Yeah except the OP isn't looking for an LCI grille....
