Chrome Grill

I called up my local BMW after taking advice from here about getting a chrome grill for my car (3.1.8d SE 57 plate). They tell me that they dont sell it for this model at present yet their brochures show the 3 series with a chrome grill - can anyone recommend a place to buy one or is it just not avaiable at all?

thanks

Hello these are the part numbers you need, just phone BMW dealer and order:

Grille Left (Chrome) 511371 20009 For a BMW E91
Grille Right (Chrome) 511371 20010

Hope that helps

I bought these genuine OEM chrome grills for my wife's E91 320d from this German ebayer for €57.50 delivered. Works out about £40 all in.

Hi, I was thinking pf changing my grill to chrome too. They are approx £48 inc vat from a main dealer. I am not too sure how to replace them. Has anybody removed theirs? There was a diy guide to remove the grill on here a while ago that said a firm pull on the slats was all that is required to remove the grill, however I am nervous of taking this course of action before seeking further advice. I also read somewhere that there are some screws that require removal first. Can anybody confirm the correct way to replace the grill please. Thanks in advance. Nigel (Liverpool)

I bought a pair late last year for around £55 from my main dealer. If you are stuck I can get the part numbers from my receipt.
