Chrome Grills
I know that I the 328i's doesn't come with Chrome accents on the grills or the side linings. That only comes with the 335i's. But is there anyway to install a chrome grill onto my 328xi? (It looks reallllly bling, you cant deny that)
Are the OEM parts, and would the labor cost a lot? Thanks!

Grill Left: 51137120009 OEM Chrome grill
Grill Right: 51137120010 OEM Chrome grill And go through the appropriate step in the DIY below. It is easy you can do it yourself. I have them for my E91 but I haven't installed them yet. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3830 Good luck.

on the 328 you do not have to remove the 2 top pieces/strips since these are already chrome. The 2 grills simply pop out with a little tugging and the 2 new chrome pieces pop right in. I'm a girl and even I did it without any problem.

Yes see my post above for part number. I paid about $120.00 CAD for both side.

It takes maybe 20 seconds each? I did it in the dealership showroom while taking delivery. it was funny how many people inside the dealership looked in shock as I pulled off the grills of a brand new BMW..
