GLOSS BLACK KIDNEY GRILLS e85 e86 where to buy?

[Mchatelier]

Hi all, please can someone point me to the best black grills for my coupe, after a satin or gloss finish.
Not interested in spraying please - so if you know where I can buy within the UK with fast delivery that would be hugely appreciated.

Alternatively, if you have a pair for sale in black, or another OEM (which I may plasti-dip) - please PM me.

Thanks in advance all.
Mark

I got mine as I always do from CKS Performance, great finish and fit unlike most of the cheap Chinese made crap online. I think they do matt too but I went for gloss with my ones, 2 years later and still in great condition.

I got these on eBay, very good fit and not silly expensive

Just an idea that I'd like to know, how much would it be to get them hydro dipped roughly?

I got mine from mstyle but I think they came direct from Germany.

M Style is a good place for the grilles

Ordered , thanks for posting the link

 

[Neilc]

Yeah it's red and shiny which matches other bits on the car. Lol

 

[dhobbs]

Just ordered some as well.

Are these produced as one inseparable piece per kidney, or as a separate inner and outer part as per the OEM kidney grills (OEM: outer = chromed plastic, inner = black or graphite plastic)?

Anyone knows of any after market black grills with seperate inner and outer bits?

Hi Neil, do you know if each grill is in two parts, as I may keep chrome outer if the option exists.

Cheers

Hi Mark,

The ones I got come clipped together but it does look like they will unclip although I would try and use a plastic trim tool rather than a screw driver to try and separate them, less scratches on the plastic.

If you buy some I'll buy the black outers from you.
