Does anyone know if a Vorsteiner type grill (just the horizontal bars, not the CSL type) exists in gloss black, rather than carbon? I’d prefer to stick with gloss black exterior accents than carbon. Preferably one that doesn’t need to cut the foam and is also ACC compatible. Cheers!

This is the only one they have:

And it has this disclaimer:

Discalimer: Due to BMW making an adjustment to the M3/M4 models, the foam bar for each vehicle may be different. In these cases, it requires the installer to remove a section of the support foam behind the bumper, which is already detached from the main bar.

Thanks. I had seen that one. Mainly wondering if anyone has come across one that doesn’t need cutting. Not necessarily from Vorsteiner themselves, more the style.

Do you know for sure that the bumper foam design changed? That would explain the total pain I had installing mine. I did the two cuts as noted in the "V" instructions, but I ended up having to cut across that whole center section for my bumper to fit. Of course, I did that after taking the cover off about 25 times thinking I did something wrong first.

I guess I could check the part #s. I have a '21 so mine would have been the first gen.

I just checked.
'21 and '22 M3 have the same part #.

So do the '21 M3 and '22 M4.

I'm not sure why I had to do extra trimming, but I'm definitely not the only person.
