Front Grille, Kidney Grill Replacement for BMW 3 Series F30 F31 (ABS, Gloss Black)

I just opened the box and was impressed with the quality of the construction and packaging. I'm blown away. I will update my review once I have completed the deep cleaning, paint correction, and ceramic coating. Because the grills are cheap enough to be replaced every year or two, I consider them "consumable" at this point. Even when ceramic coated, there is no way to keep them in perfect condition or restore them to that condition. They simply scratch too easily and are constantly pelted with stones. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> These grills could be a part of my annual deep clean/restore/replace maintenance routine if the quality stays the same at this price, and if the fitment for F30 2013 328i is also perfect. br>br>Update 2: After 5 months, the grills are still in excellent condition and fit perfectly; I will definitely purchase these again when the time comes to replace them. br>br>Update number three: With winter on the way and a significant temperature difference, the grills still look and fit great after seven months. br>br>4th Update: Everything is fine now, 5 years later: )br>br>Good luck with your mods, and if you found this review useful, please mark it as "helpful" so that others don't waste their time reading it and can make the same informed decision you and I did.

I had no idea what to expect, but it wasn't going to be anything close to OEM quality. So when the box arrived and I took them out, I was pleasantly surprised. I'd give it a 9 because the black gloss paint is nearly perfect. The paint job is much nicer than I expected for the price; there is a little orange peal around one edge, but the rest is perfect. br>br>It took about 10-minutes to install. minutes. In addition, the fit is almost flawless. They were able to sneak in without being noticed. Getting rid of the old ones took the most time. You'll have no trouble getting them out, but you're in a hurry. br>br>When I ordered them through Amazon, the figment guide said they wouldn't fit my 2013 328i, but since the title said they were for a F30, I figured they hadn't been entered for all of the models they fit. Again, the fit was excellent, so there's no need to be concerned about a 328 fitting. I expect Amazon to address this issue soon. br>br>Overall, a great addition to the car at a reasonable price without the need to wait for delivery from China. These are something I'd buy again in a heartbeat.

It was a pain to get the old ones out, but once that was done, these simply snapped into place and looked fantastic. I was pleasantly surprised by how nice they looked for such a low price, and by how well they were packaged. I'm always annoyed by packages that have a lot of empty space or are packed haphazardly.

It looks fantastic and is the perfect match for my 2015 BMW 335i xdrive. I couldn't be more pleased with the product; it arrived 10 days ahead of schedule and in perfect condition. I would strongly suggest it.

This product's packaging is outstanding. It comes wrapped in a soft protective wrap and then plastic bagged in a box that is divided into two sections for each grille (left and right). For the price, the quality and plastic are excellent. The installation is difficult at first, but once you get the first grille out, things get a lot easier.

I was hoping for a matte black finish, but I'm glad I got these instead. They were well-prepared for their journey. After removing the rubber weatherstripping, we loosened the bumper cover after watching a video and getting our t20 and t30 bits. Push down on the tabs to pop out one side, then reach in through the opening you just made to remove the other. Clean inside while you're at it, then replace the grills, replace the bolts holding the bumper cover and weatherstripping, and stand back to admire your work. 2015 BMW 328i xDrive Touring Wagon Estate.

Installing these was simple once I figured out how to get rid of the old grills. These install easily after removing the factory chrome grills. Simply align them and push until the clips click into place, then tug to ensure they're secure. br>They have a nice gloss finish, are lighter in weight than the OEM grills, and the packaging was excellent. I would buy these again if necessary, but I don't think they will fail. br>It's a must-have.

I've never done any type of car "modding" before, and it only took that long because removing the stock grill was such a pain. It brings my 2015 BMW 335i into line with the newer models. It's a lot better than Chrome's default settings. Previously, there was an edge. 5 Stars.
