They were £63 with my 10% off so not much more than after market ones and a nice gloss black finish to match the rest of car

They look decent,just watch the clips as they are fragile as hell

beemerbird · 07-27-2009, 03:12 PM

Always like the look of those - nice one.

You've got very clean hands btw.

ed335d · 07-27-2009, 03:29 PM

Great Mod - had 335rocks in my rear view mirror on the way home from the SW meet and the black grills look much more menacing

I didn't have any issues with the clips, but I would recommend that you unclip the bottom 2 clips first, then the side one and the 3 top ones last. If you do this the grills are quite easy to remove. Just take your time and don't pull too hard.

Have a look at the step by step DIY:

Maybe more of a 3/4 front angle of the car so you can see the whole car with wheels. Did you have long to wait for the grills? My local dealer said there was none available in germany but that was 2-3 weeks ago. I may have to give them a shout tomorrow. They change the car so much.

I was told the same 2 weeks ago, but ordered them anyway. It only took a few days for them to arrive.

Ordered around 4 weeks ago
1 grill came around 10 days ago and the other yesterday

So crap that half the stuff is on back order
