Looks like those E92 grilles are here

baltik · 10-23-2007, 04:08 AM

Just saw this on ebay, I am sure these are getting made in a chinese factory so I'd imagine we see these everywhere soon

Bubbles · 10-23-2007, 07:15 AM

SWEET!!!!! I've been waiting for this!!!! Although $120 is a bit high for the grille.

cyba · 10-23-2007, 07:57 AM

nice piece

oldaccount · 10-23-2007, 11:06 AM

price sucks.

any idea on fitment? Im assuming thyere not OEM?

baltik · 10-23-2007, 11:33 AM

Well if my hunch is correct and these are chinese made - every single vendor will be carrying these shortly bringing the price down

shragon · 10-23-2007, 12:24 PM

probably made in china or taiwan.

i expect 10 different vendors to have these in the coming weeks.

I had it on both of my cars Audi for about a year no visible scratches or chips and my BMW for 6 months same. I'll bet my wife on it....LOL!!!

brandon @ eas · 10-24-2007, 12:00 PM

I also did the plasti dip paint on my e92 grills, and from about 10ft back they look great and dont ever seem to get rock chips, but the texture on them is horrible horrible horrible. They are very rough and almost fuzzy feeling. I actually tried painting these 3 different times, in hopes of getting a better result, and it is just terrible. I also have about 10 years of autobody painting experience using compressors and guns, yet I couldnt get a decent result out of this can to save my life
