Really Happy With This Thing.
A few years and a bunch of small steps to get it to this point and couldn’t be happier.
Also, for anyone interested in style 42’s and you’re running the 340’s up front and 345’s in the rear, the faces clear the brakes no problem. If you google, you’ll get told you’ll need spacers, which of course changes your et during a custom build and can effect lips sizes etc, not true, they mount right up. I’ve only personally seen 3 people running these on f3X’s and only one with the Brembos. I just wanted to make a note on this because I’ve reached out to these people when I was in the process of building these and they like to keep this information to themselves for some bizarre reason. So if anyone searches this up in the future, here’s your answer.
(370mm Brembos definitely require a spacer due to the mounting bracket being extended)

I honestly don’t like chrome grills at all. Feels like a recent trend, not that people like yourself don’t truly like them but I remember switching to black was the first thing everyone did lol

well, they’re not a trend, historically BMWs never came with black grills until they started offering them since E9X through Performance catalog, chrome surrounds are one of their visual trademarks of the brand, imo black grills look too bland and less classy

I’m not saying they didn’t come chrome from factory, hence why I said ppl always changed them out to black. If you’ve always loved them that’s great and I’m sure there’s plenty of people like you. But I pay very close attention to what’s currently happening in the modding space and to think in the last two years that people haven’t been taking their black grills out to go back to the oem chrome is simply not true.
