Anyway to get the OEM CF breather inlet?

I really regret not getting the CF exterior package. I think they change the front look especially for the light color ones. I have been tracking the M Performance shop. They used to sell the pieces for around 600 but not in stock. However, I noticed that these pieces have been taken down. So does it mean they aren't selling these any more? Anyone know if there is any other way to get the CF inlets? I guess aftermarket is also an option. I am pretty new to aftermarket mods tho.

I imagine the aftermarket will be pretty quick to build a CF exterior package lookalike. Hopefully someone can make one in decent quality

I know Autocouture motoring has the pieces listed on their site. Its definetly cheaper to option the car with the package then to piece it all together. I opted for the kit when ordering my car. Nothing fits like oem no matter how good they are lol. Plus i dont wanna be pulling the bumper off a brand new car to put them on. I do wish it came with a carbon front lip as part of the package. But im sure they will add that soon.

They had the wrong price and wrong part# initially for the air inlets, that's why they took it down. I confirmed this with my local dealer. The price and part number they had listed was for the carbon fiber side marker. The air inlets are actually $1500 a piece.

I thought I read that installing them was a huge hassle as well as the front bumper had to be removed.

Looks like you have them for $3100. Pretty expensive. How is the install process?

Wow. Love IND, but this makes the carbon exterior package from BMW look like a bargain!

Yea, it's cost prohibitive at that price. I might be interested in just straight black pieces to match the grilles which I imagine would be a bunch cheaper.

An independent shop has to fabricate their own in-house set.
