OEM M3 Edition grill on an E90 LCI M3?
Is this possible? Seems like according to this link,
http://www.trademotion.com/partlocat...catalogid=4462 the perf. grill can be used for all M3's, the E90/E92/E93's. Just double checking to see if anyone's 100% sure on this |

These are the standard BMW Performance grills, not the Edition grills.

They are actually Tischer BMW in Maryland. Very reliable vendor, plenty of forum members have bought from them. Top Notch service.

They don't exist, unfortunately. I had IND paint me a pair in gloss jet black, which exactly match the BMW Performance front grills. If I were to do it all over again, I'd strongly consider going with the Edition grills and gills now that Tischer is stocking them. But then again, they wouldn't match the window trim, so maybe not.

Sorry for my confusion but what do you mean the Edition front and side grills won't match the window trim? I thought the M3 'shadow chrome' edition grills had the same look as the window trim.

There have been similar discussions about the differences between shadow chrome and gloss black in other threads, and which is actually the color of our M3 window trim. Try doing a search, or wait for someone more informed to chime in.

Here's a pic of the black/chrome m3 edition grills... They do resemble the gloss black performance grills...but the finish is slightly different and looks unique under different lighting. They will fit your e90 lci m3! Find these, and many other great specials here!

I didn't realize that the "Performance Edition" and "Edition" grills were in fact diffrent. I want the grille to exactly match the black shadowline trim around the windows. I have the CF roof, but decided to stay away from the CF grille as I have read many have problems with delaminating discoulouration. That being said, BMW in Canada said they have the "Performance Edition" grills, but could not locate a mataching "Performance Edition" side marker/gill part to match. Just to be sure - the "Performance Edition" is gloss black that matches the trim. and the "Edition" set are black chrome. Right? Does anyone know if BMW offers a gloss black "Performance Edition" side marker/gill set to match the grille? Thanks! |
