LCI Front Grill Retrofit

M5 TT · 07-27-2013, 06:38 AM

Anyone seen these for sale yet. Really like the new look and fancy a set in black

ihc · 07-27-2013, 06:43 AM

I spoke with IND -- they do not have them yet. I will wait until IND has them and then probably buy one -- they have nice options such as painting the outer ring body color, etc.

This is what im waiting for!!!

Head · 07-28-2013, 06:17 AM

Yes, I'm waiting Nate @ Ind to sort it. Hurry up Nate!

PatrickC23 · 07-30-2013, 02:33 PM

+1 add me to first shipment!

ucla95 · 07-30-2013, 02:46 PM

Won't it be a slightly different shape? I thought the kidneys were modified on the LCI (not just the grille) but I may be wrong.

Nate@IND · 07-30-2013, 02:52 PM

I have my contact in Germany calling his friend at BMW everyday. Once they are ready we will air the set in.

Sharpie12 · 07-30-2013, 02:58 PM

I haven't even paid attention to the LCI changes. Link to how it'll look?

M5 TT · 07-30-2013, 03:03 PM

Sounds good to me

Yes! Ive been patiently waiting on a LCI set in gloss black. I wonder if BMW would do the same as they offer gloss black on the current kidney grills.

Paul, The M5 will be slow mate compared to that RS6 Monster re-map.

Will you be disappointed I wonder?.

Alan l. · 07-31-2013, 09:11 AM

Hopefully that M5 badge is easily removable without looking unfinished for guys that don't want it.

I am not huge on badging the whole car. The rear and the sides are plenty for me.
Other than that I think the new grill looks great.

Still running it in but I fear you may be right. Feels ok to 5k but not really gone over that. The RS was mental, think the 5 will deffo be slower, on saying the though the 5 is way ahead in terms of finish, comfort, quiet, handling, tech and MPG, pretty happy with it for now. 1200 mile service next week so see how it goes.

Yeah I like the badge 2

I like the grill but not the spacing between slats as the larger spacing makes for nice rocks to come flying through into one of the many rads or intercoolers.
