Does anyone here know how to put the e60 front grill covers on? If so could you please tell me how this task is performed?

Thanks in advance.

I am not 100% sure what you mean, but if you are talking about changing the kidney grilles, I have lately done it. At one point it helps, if you have a second person lending you a hand. Otherwise it's pretty easy and should be done in about 20-30 minutes first time and about 10-15 minutes if you do it again

Yes that is what I was asking, (changing out the kidney grilles), and thanks! (You just saved me $50.00 that Hank Aaron BMW was going to charge me next week!)

Your e60 friend,

Dear 'olli_535d':

I just changed out my grill covers, to the M5 chrome ones going step-by-step using your directions, and did it in about 15 minutes by myself, again Thanks!


Sincerely,

Good to hear and glad it worked well.

Could you possibly post a pic with the all chrome ones. I am thinking of getting a pair, too and change them once in a while with my all black ones.
