Ben - any chance you can find the same design but with chrome surround trim instead of all black?

Unfortunately no.
All the aftermarket tend to go matte black, gloss black, and carbon fiber.
I will ask my vendor if they can get it chromed.

I will need a core of the original F85/F86 X5M/X6M outer ring.
The new batch is the same design as the OEM. I will have them in 2-3 weeks.

That is the old batch. The new batch will be the same as the F85/F86 X5M/X6M.

Sorry, I might be confused. Will the new batch fit the F15, but look exactly like the F85? Or are they a blacked-out version of the F85 that will not fit the F15?

@rbilramz it will be the F85/F86 X5M/X6M style kidney grill in dual slat minus the X5M/X6M badge which will fit on all F15/F16 X5/X6 and F85/F86 X5M/X6M.

Waiting to see these before I work out which way to go.

I didn't actually realise the current (old) double slat grills were not exactly the same as the F85/F86 X5M/X6M.

You are not alone on that, I found out when I got a close up look on the real F85/F86 X5M/X6M.

Mine is arriving tomorrow. This is perfect. I get off my long flight, pick up the package, install it on my car. Perfect way to fix my jet lag!

Can't wait.

Should've order more stuff, cuz that kidney grill alone won't be enough to kill the jetlag.

If I had M-Sport I'd would have gotten some of the aero bits also


Actually didn't you have that retrofit set?

Muffler tip, painted front reflector, etc. You name it and we can make it happen.

Have you found a way for us folks to make our M-Sport exhaust tips black in either matte or gloss and hold up against chipping due to high heat? Not sure if just the tips are replaceable or the entire system has to be swapped out. Any ideas?

Have you tried high temp paint like VHT?
That what I have used last, I did about 4 coats.

Tips can be swapped with MPE tips, but required cutting and welding. Or you can just paint your original one.
