IND Front Grills vs BMW M Performance

I realize that the INDs start life as oem but is there any reason if I just wanted black to get the INDs over the others. The BMW performance ones can be had for under $300.
Is the shadowline more of a matte or gloss??

Thanks!!

If you're only getting the grills then I don't think it makes a difference. I would be concerned about other aftermarket brands as far as fit and finish. I got my grills from IND because they were part of the LCI cosmetic package that includes the grills, reflector replacements and side markers. I also got the black rear M badge. Saved money doing it that way.

iND is a huge supporter of this forum, for starters. The quality of their stuff and service is impeccable, for finishers.

The shadowline stuff is gloss.

You can also have them paint them any color too. I had iND paint the rounds body color for a bit more $.
