This does a great job fitting a theme to that grill. But imo the standard grill or vorstiner is more fitting of the G8X

In my view this looks more Munich than OEM which I think has Ingolstadt (Audi) vibes.

To me it’s the twin coffins combined with the OG M2 front bumper

There’s just way to much going on

Not an ideal look IMO… 👀

BMW became confused regarding the “M” thing, designed the car around a pair of M48 grills. not much the aftermarket will be able to do with it.

I get Audi vibes from the front. Not in a bad way, just first thought pops into my head when I see first pic posted here.

The front bumper really adds to it. I love it.

Reminds me a bit with the Audi grill styling for the front end.

If BMW came out with this design, would it have been just as polarizing? Are people just used to the BMW front end now and other designs are just not cutting it?

I’ll join the minority and say I think the front end is an improvement over OEM.
