I finally received the part. It's a very sturdy piece and doesn't bend easily. Wasn't able to just slide it in through the front opening and tie it. Probably either need to remove the bumper or trim it down more🤔

Can you provide close in pictures on how you attached it?

Any tips as to the installation method to minimize dissassembly?

Thank you.

Zunsport. Easy install. Solid product. Best pic I have.

DIY with ABS honeycomb sheet from amazon, had to cut to fit and secure with zip ties but the end results looks how the car should’ve came from factory.

I ended up not installing it. Trimmed the piece and it still won't bend and slide in. Very sturdy.

Someone else has done it here https://g87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...&postcount=116
and bumper needed to be removed.

Has anyone tried or seen the Vorsteiner front mesh?

The pics look good - more upfront positioning, providing protection to both the front facing and bottom facing coolers. I can’t tell how they are secured, eg zip
Ties etc.

I am also interested in the Vorsteiner front grille. I can't find any info on mounting.

Do the Zunsport grilles chafe the plastic anyplace?

Not if you install them correctly.

I like the looks of this.
Did you do the side vents too?
Also what description does this sheet have large holes, medium holes)?
Can you send me the link please

That's even a concern for the stock plastic grid that sets tight to the radiator, as I've got little debris stuck in there. All in all a BMW fail.

I think I like these horizontal slats more because the kidneys are horizontal. Would have to see a wider angle to be sure.

Zunsport still seems to be the best looking in my opinion. I think I would try a DYI ceramic coating of the grills so they don't retain as much dirt/grime.

MikeyP · 02-05-2025, 11:25 AM

I followed "Mr. Hankey's 'Daily Driver' BG M2 Journal." I love the results. I like that the radiator guard sits behind the pillars. I even used the extra mesh to make the "best" oil cooler guard I could. 50$

Zunsport front (main) grill and oil cooler grills added to my '23 G87. Very happy with the fitment and look.
I can confirm that the grill does not interfere with the ACC, I've used it several times since fitting the grill, all works 100%.
For the money they cost, and the time it took to fit them, I can't see why anyone wouldn't...
