Hey Nate -
Are you able to get the NV version the same way?

Sadly no. Night vision is on extended back-order for Germany and the US. We are trying to find a Nighthawk M5 VIN with the Night vision option right now.

Will the price go down after your first 10 sets are sold? I'm assuming the high price is due to the air shipping and customs.

mattkim85 · 11-27-2013, 10:42 PM

When are the first sets being shipped out?

Are the standard/chrome LCI grills also back-ordered (i.e. high shipping cost)? I ask because if I want color-matched grills, iND can simply paint over the prepped chrome, correct?

xiljustin · 11-28-2013, 11:39 PM

Does anyone have the part numbers for all gloss black?

51 71 2 352 807 M5 LCI Performance black grille, left
51 71 2 352 808 M5 LCI Performance black grille, right

Not sure if M5 badge has to be separately ordered on the Performance grilles, but don't think so.

I am interested in a standard set of LCI grills with the chrome, I not blacked out. Nate are you getting any of those ? If so please take my money

mattkim85 · 12-03-2013, 12:47 AM

Any updates?

patb23 · 12-03-2013, 12:30 PM

updates?

Nate@IND · 12-03-2013, 12:57 PM

I check on the grilles every morning. Zero in the US and no news.

997usa · 12-04-2013, 01:54 PM

Good news!

Today I received the LCI grilles that I ordered over 3 months ago (!) straight from Germany (through a friend, as he was told specifically that they cannot be exported to the USA(!))

The grills are a perfect fit and it is pull, click and play.
These were the ones with the M5 Logo - original box labels below.

Local German BMW Dealership...
The MSRP is approx 130 USD; you can order them online at getbmwparts for 96 but the wait time is what is killing...

xiljustin · 12-05-2013, 07:59 PM

Just got mine today - ordered them 2 weeks ago through parts. However, they're the black with chrome outer lining - I guess the all black grills aren't being released until mid January. I'll just get them coated.

Did you have to order the M5 logo separately?
