Ok, it maybe be a stupid question, but I can't really tell. Are these actual carbon fiber or hydro dipped?

simpleM3 · 06-03-2019, 09:42 PM

I don't know what hydro is so I can't answer that accurately. The set came on the car; not purchased buy me. they aren't branded so I did some research and found that several manufacturers make this or something similar. I doubt these are some knock offs or hydro whatever, because the other CF parts are all either Vorsteiner and/or OEM M-performance. It wouldn't make sense for this to be the only non authentic cf mod.

Look to be oem with a cf wrap. Real cf overlay on an oem part. My cabin air filters were done the same way.

Does this fit E92? When I look on realoem.com, the part numbers seem to be the same for the stock grill inserts, but some websites that sell aftermarket grills seem to indicate you need to pick E90 or E92/E93...

If it fits E92, I'll take them.

simpleM3 · 06-06-2019, 03:53 PM

For LCI i believe they are, but definitely not for pre-LCI. I also don't know that to be true, but just like you, I was finding the same part # for both. My buddy who has an 09 e90 bought e92 grills hat did not fit, so that's my only actual frame of reference.

Mine's a MY2012, so definitely LCI. Are you saying they'll fit if they're LCI, or they won't fit?

simpleM3 · 06-07-2019, 08:49 AM

Pending sale.

simpleM3 · 06-07-2019, 08:54 AM

What I'm saying is that like you, I found that the the parts numbers appear to be the same. I'm guesing that it might be for LCI E92/E90 and maybe not with the pre-LCI E92. My reason for saying that is that my buddy bought a set of E92 grills that did not fit his pre-LCI E90. The part number for his pre-LCI E90 is different than the LCI ones so based on that I suspect they're different.

I'm not confirming or denying anything except that I have a 2011 E90 which these fit perfectly on. lol

OK, it sounds like they would probably fit since I am LCI. But it seems I got skipped in line. Are they still available?

simpleM3 · 06-07-2019, 03:29 PM

Sorry sold. Buyer sent payment yesterday where you and I were still discussing fitment.
