Carbon Fiber Front Grilles?

I am looking to order carbon fiber front grills for my 2010 Black 328i Coupe, but there are so many suppliers out there and I am kind of new to this stuff so I was wondering if you guys (the experts) could help me out in finding a quality carbon fiber front grill for my car. Thanks!

Just bought some from **********s and they are ok but they came packaged with the 2 small pieces together in a plastic bag and they got nicked on the under edge. No big deal but considering 250.00 Id look elsewhere. I know everyone loves **********s so I'll prolly get flamed. Just stating the facts. Like I said, its not showing so I didnt complain as I also had to have them for a photo shoot thing tomorrow and mounted them anyways. Sucks to be in a hurry.

I tell you, I got my from Ebay with no issues, The were shipped from Japan and I counldn't be happier. It was here faster than some of the items I order here in the states the same day. I paid like 150, no more, but they look great. I don't usually buy items like this from ebay, but this time I was highlty satisfied with the order.

I'm sorry to hear that you've had a negative experience. We do have a very strict quality control process to ensure that our customers receive carbon fiber products with a perfect weave and without imperfections. From your description, it does sound like the damage may have happened during the shipping process. We are more than happy to do warranty/return/exchange of any products that are deemed defective or open a claim for you so long as the opportunity is given to us to make things right.

PM Sent- don't want to jack the thread. I never contacted **********s so I want to be clear about that- they would probably make it right. My issue was it shouldn't have been wrong to begin with.. thats all.. taking it to PM as we don't need the drama lol

I can tell you that mines are in great shape and I'm really picky when it comes to buying anything specially Carbon fiber products. I would also recommend that you look for the E92 ones, if they have any, which I'm sure they do, I'm not sure what the difference is.
