IND sells them. That looks better than I thought it would.

That looks improved for sure. Why BMW went with the one piece look is beyond me. That was a big turn off in my decision to buy the 2019.

Hey Marc is it just an illusion or is the seal line between the hood and the front a little off on left side? Hood seems to be sitting slightly higher on the far left

Yep it is, a touch off. Not much I can do about right now. Already tried to adjust the hood, but I can't do much about it without removing the bumper again. We removed the bumper for some testing, but never got it to fit well again. I need to remove the bumper again and then re-adjust it properly, but I have zero time for it.

In the end, I am getting a carbon hood anyhow and my car is getting PPS, which requires removing both bumpers, so I don't care too much right now. I will adjust it properly when the time comes around.

I knew from when I first saw the one piece grill that the middle would be painted by someone sooner or later. Looks much better, as people already said, why they went with a one piece is beyond me..

I prefer the resulting look, with two distinct ovals.

On my F80 I had the IND surrounds color matching the car (MG) and it looked great in person (IMO). Pic for ref

Now I have an M2c in HS. Have you guys painted the grille outer (along with the center slat) in body color? Would really like to see a pic of the M2c grill painted in HS with only black centers.
