I bought the performance grills from a BMW dealer down south using their eBay shop. They charged me £75 all in delivered and I got all four pieces. You shouldn't be paying extra for the top pieces.

i had the same issue.
when you order performance grilles its just that (the grilles).
you have to order the 2 extra bits for the bonnet as they are not classed as part of the grilles so dont worry its not a partial kit but some dealers quote a price with the common sense you will want all 4 bits.

Anyone fitted the black grilles to a black E90? I like the grilles but I'm not sure if it'll look right on my car, if anyone has pics it'd be appreciated and may help me make up my mind, just concerned black on black so to speak wouldn't look right, cheers

If they are M3 ones then they won't have the eyebrows as the M3 Coupe and Saloon had the facelift front from day one.

Sounds like you needed pre-lci and purchased lci.
