Body colored side-grilles from IND

I purchased the IND painted side grilles for my M3 a while back but didn't have time to put them on. I finally installed them today. Quality and paint match is great and I love the new look of the grilles. Pics to follow.

I used some plastic wedge trim tools and some old credit cards to pop those out.

Looks great. I got a set from Nate@IND too, good service.
I have not installed them yet, they look like a PITA to get off though.

Install is not that easy but you can always take them to a local body shop. Our guys here at the shop can get them in and out very easy now.

Agreed, IND color matches "perfectly"! They matched my BW which is not so easy.

Props to IND!


Here are a few pics!
