Finally got around to installing the new X5M grille.

Go up against a X5M and let me know if that statement is correct?

Blackhawks, how is the fitment on the grills? Do they feel snug or loose?
Thanks.

atomic80 · 07-24-2015, 06:05 AM

Mine is a bit loose on top since the clips on top doesn't lock into place. I'm planning to put some double sided tape up there to hold it in place more securely. That's aftermarket for you.

aw305 · 07-24-2015, 08:40 AM

a different 5 along my 5 lol

Blackhawks · 07-24-2015, 08:56 AM

@Kzang - it's not loose beyond what's expected for plastic. There is a little bit of give, but nothing substantial that would create a rattle or shifting upon hitting a pothole. I had the dealer install mine as I had some time to kill yesterday and it was too damn hot to do it myself. If you want me to take a video and press certain locations, let me know.

Blackhawks · 07-24-2015, 09:00 AM

Black roundel added... And the X5 badge is playing with me. I don't like the two tone but I'm not a big de-badger, either.

Go for the gloss black or matte on the X5 badge to go with the theme.

I'm afraid it will look tacky. Have you seen any decent on a space gray? I picked up the roundel and space gray license plate holder (which is kick ass) from iNd. I'll see if they have the badge, too.

They can custom paint it for you. Just contact them

Blackhawks · 07-24-2015, 09:59 AM

Ben did his. I'm probably going to add some aftermarket CF quad tips to match the performance kit

I think it would be bad ass...
Check this thread out where the OP got the black emblem from ebay for his white. It's not the same as Space Grey but as you can imagine black will go well with space grey.

I plan on doing this to mine when I have the time..
