Installing LCi grill, side gills and RKP splitter from IND
So I ordered a load of goddies from Nate at IND and was keen to get them on my car as soon as possible...
Ill get proper pics up as soon as possible but just wanted to re-assure everyone who is a little worried like i was about working on a car such as the M5 themselves... So I googled everything that I could possible find about installing these components...I found a mixture of reviews, some people could simply pull the grills out and others really struggled and as a result I got myself very nervous!... After BMW quoted me over £300 to do the work I thought I would give it a go myself and it turns out I was worried for absolutely no reason... RE the front grill....This replacement took and I am not exagurating less than 3 mins including masking up around the grill for protection.. The car was driven for around 30 mins beforehand to ensure the plastic on the gril had warmed up slightly...I grabbed both sides of the grill and simply pulled..I actually exerted very minimal force and both sides came out no problem at all so I would highly recommend this method instead of lososening the front bumper... With regards to the side grills, a little more time consuming but I followed INDs instructions and had these both replaced within 15 mins.. Im super happy with the look of the car now and have included a crappy Iphone pic for the time being as soon as I get some proper pics up Oh, and the RKP splitter went on as well.....This was a 5 minute job and fitted perfectly!! |
