CSL one looks nicer I think. In either case, what happens if you have that driver assistance sensor on the front? I won’t, just curious

Very similar to installing the front air ducts. Front bumper has to be removed and then plenty of clips and tabs. There are a couple of videos on it. Pretty tedious and about 4 hours for the average joe.
I'll have a shop do it at the same time with the front air ducts.

A little much for me, I may just have it done at the same time as exhaust installs.

Does anyone know if this is compatible with the drivers assistance package? I can't tell how or whether this works with it, and I can't order until I get confirmation that it does. Thanks.

I don't mind pre-orders when there is an estimate on when they will be shipped. But just tying up $1500 with no end in sight is annoying when that money could go into other things that are in stock.

There was no option for me to select ABS and I ordered so fast I didn't even consider if I would prefer CF or ABS. Now you have me rethinking the CF may be too much with everything else.

My main gripe with this one and the other non-OEM is the CF weave. I have the OEM CF inlets and lip. If you look at the left inlet the weave is not going the correct angle like the OEM inlet, it takes more time and effort to really think these details through...sure charge more but for me it's a deal breaker.

That's without seeing it up close to see if the weave matches. I get people want to save money from BMW's crazy ass prices but I guess paying Porsche tax for so many years I am used to it for factory thoroughness. I would not allow my car to be some sort of Frankenstein of miss matched CF parts.

Just noticed it. I’ve never personally heard of this brand. It just coincidentally popped on my feed today and figured I’d share what a G80 with the CS grill would look like

I just saw that they removed it. Now only CF is available. I wonder if that means they won't offer ABS at all, or just not yet. I would prefer the deep black look of the ABS and it's also half the price.

EDIT: just went ahead and ordered the CF. Oh well…hopefully it will arrive before my car does in March
