This. They keep complaining about people that don't like the grill.

Yet we get the exact same people, that can be counted with two hands btw, backing and loving the grill and appreciating each other for every post LOL.
At least we get a lot of fresh people hating it.

I've expressed my displease with the grill so I'm done.
As far as the list that won't ever buy one? Too easy, bring it on.

Aftermarket front grill

Will tuners be able to supply a different front grill?
Not sure if it is not some sort of copyright infringment?
Serious question - I love all about it but the grill is a deal breaker.

Not sure possible but whichever brand can fix the grille aftermarket can definitely make a lot of money.

If you know of a way to do that, let me know. I'll suggest it to the admin.

You ridiculed the Photoshop skills of BMW. I thought it unintentionally hilarious but looked at it more as a revelation on the current state of these forums. No offense intended. No one seems to have anything nice to say these days.

People aren't just complaining about the grill, people like to talk about the "interesting" design. If we need to keep that discussion separate, OK? Leave this one for just (upcoming) discussion based around the press release and official pictures? I'm open to it.

All good none taken... I was being sarcastic but sorta like dang at least get some photoshop goin dudes..

I hear you on negativity, people just want to love the car and jt causes lots of emo. I want to love it too as want to replace my f80 but there are things that bug me about the new direction ...

Another thing that's causing a lot of the negative posting is there seems to be an assumption that those of us who hate it don't like change which isn't the case . I love risky designs but risky can still look good!

The m3 looks pretty good my stance has been more saddened by the digital cluster interior than the grille.

Anyhow ... onward ! 👍

Actually, in the majority of cases people are just talking about the grill. In fact, so many people wanted to talk about the grill and only the grill that it made sense to create a thread just to talk about the grill an only the grill. So that's what this thread is, as reflected in the title.

The Problem.
"The M3/M4 are Great but they look like standard M Sport models."
The Question?
"What would you like to see? Apart from Performance and drivetrain? More definition? More presence? Individuality?
The Answer.
"More justification that it does not look like a standard 3er."
The brief.
"Individuality that reflects the performance, appearance considerable distance from the standard 3er."
The Response.
Scrrrrrreeeeeeeeeccccccchhhhhhhhhh!GRILLESaaaaarrr rgggghhhhhhh!!!!Will it have a cup holder?Scrreeeeecccchhhhh!!!!!

I think the grille is slightly more palatable on the M3 than on the M4. Can't say exactly why but :/

IMHO CSL Hommage Style grill would have worked. Stays true, Modern enough, and probably "less" offensive to most design wise.
