The quality of the grills are different. As you can see from Vlad's post #6 the 2nd picture is better and more like OEM ![Thumbsup](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/thumbsup.gif)
Also, the inside slits are different as well.

Yea no problem. At first I thought that they are all the same too. Until I ordered mine and noticed that they look different from OEM. As for me, i like rounded more. But it's a matter of personal choice

ive had both, the rounded and the more squared
quality wise i found them to be the same but i was annoyed by the fact they didnt look like oem
Khoalty sells the more squared ones which is oem for $39 plus shipping which nobody else here gets close to

Where would you guys recommend getting the grills from? I have a white car and was thinking of getting it matte black and paint the fins inside white, wat do you think?
