I haven't seen anyone on the forums with these on. Anyone have them? They look pretty slick, but im undecided on them.

i was looking into getting them but i thought they were a rip off and actually decided to make my own.. i got these metal sheets with 1/4inch holes pattern on it from ebay and then cut them with metal cutters.. it actually came out really good and looks the same..

Very... bright and shiny --- Might wanna tuck that bottom-right one back in. Looks like it's starting to come out.

Well, it is very personal taste. To me, I prefer the stock ones.
+1, especially for stock bumper and mtech/M5 front. they look good with the hamann front though as they come with it already

I had the racemesh grill when i had my M5 front bumper, had electropolished (chrome) version...didn't like it that much...black is better. The mesh is really expensive too, not worth the money

I have the black powder coat ones. I put the the kidneys on and I am waiting for my kit from Tony so I can install the one for the bottom.
Do you have any pics of the black powder coated ones? I'm curious to see what they look like, btw, do you have the M-tech front?

Mine is more subtle, I only did it at the bottom.



After a few months, as the grill got dirty and darkened, it blended better into the look. I did it to protect against flying stones hitting the intercooler and brakes.
