So far so good - still working on it and will update later.

Update

[tatarwj]

Fitment was great! Everything lined uo and snapped tight. You have to remove the inner liner, which is pretty simple, to install them. Definitely worth the $170!!!

I think I’m going to peel off the red vinyl boarder on the CS grille.

Sweet! Mine are on the way, so stoked to hear this. Will be getting the, installed when I get my springs and turner skid plate installed.

Below is without the red pinstripe. I like it better without, especially with the dravit paint.

[Needsdecaf]

Much better. I don’t like the red stripes, even on a factory CSL.

I know it’s cold there. Makes me miss the North East but not that. But that salt…giving me oggidita.

I appreciate your testing these out. Based our your experience with them, I took the plunge and just ordered a set. Not sure whether they are going on my M3 or my wife's M4 convertible.

If it was anywhere close to 35-40 degrees I would give her a nice foam cannon wash. Unfortunately, it’s only 18 degrees right now in Pittsburgh with 20mph sustained winds. It looks like we won’t make it back into the 30’s until next Monday at the earliest. I hate that salt on there, but it was a fun drive in the snow to and from Washington, PA yesterday!

To double tap on this thread. We do offer gloss black air ducts as well at NWCarbon Haus

Appreciate that. But they are still carbon, yes? As I said above, kind of a waste to paint over carbon ducts in gloss black.

appreciate you offering them for those who want them though!

Got my gloss black ducts after 3 weeks shipping from China. Look pretty good! Will post pics when installed, but quality is high (for a piece of black plastic, lol).

Installed the eBay gloss black air ducts mentioned by tatarwj and made a video for those who had concerns about the fitment/install process

[Team Tonka]

Great to see/hear this! Anyone put any sort of mesh behind it to help protect any damage to the coolers behind them? Not sure if anyone makes a custom fit mesh to work with these or the OEM CF version?

Heck, black plastic chicken wire mesh might work well!?

Zunsport makes an Outer Grill Set, however it goes in front of the air ducts so kind of defeats the purpose.
If anyone would be interested in the below, please PM me

- Great protection for those who heavily track their cars or want added protection for the other coolers
- Can offer a heavy discount off the original price, and provide free installation, just need to document the process on your car on my Youtube Channel: SundeepM3
- Located preferably near Philly/South Jersey
- Must have stock "Honeycomb grills", doesn't appear to work on aftermarket air ducts
