Lower Front Grille

[Kisscorky]

I am new to the BMW Z4 World and have a few questions. I have a 2014 BMW Z4 35i. I have replaced the front grille to black ones. The lower grilles (Left, right, and center). look faded compared to the new upper grilles.

1. How hard is it to remove the old lower grilles (Left, right, and center)?
2. Where can I find new black lower grilles (Left, right, and center)?
3. How easy are the new ones to put on?

Thank you in advance!

You need to take the whole bumper off

You buy new parts from B<W suppliers only AFAIK no third party parts

Reverse process

Using some gummi pledge type spray may be an easier option.. or the Simoniz equivalent..

Thank you! I am trying to black out much of the chome exterior parts. It is a long and difficult process. Any advice or pictures of blacked out areas please share!

The kidney grilles were on eBay. A body shop painted the front ‘spoilers’ with the roll bars and mirrors. The headlamps were done at OSS in North Carolina.

That looks awesome! How did you black out your headlights?
