X6 front bumper mods

Hi

I've got a standard X6 bumper that I want to change.
First of all I want to change the mesh to black, but most importantly I want to remove the for lights and fit clean mesh there. I would like all mesh to be the same, does anyone know if I can buy it somewhere?

I painted mine in my former Alpine White 30 with a $5 paint spray bought in a local hardware store, they lasted the 3 years I owned the car......good luck and post pics

Can the bumper grilles be removed wihtout having to take the bumper off? I'd like mine black too.

That's my plan B

I wanted to get a nice mesh to go with the remaining 2 center pieces.

At the moment I am waiting for my 22s to arrive

Yeah, you just pull them real hard.
They should come off with the enitre plastic around the foglight.

I boght plack paint in hardware store painted it yesterday, waited a few hours to dry and put them back on.

I will post some pics once my wheels, black grille, led bulbs, black mesh arrive.
