It's an ebay one...surely not as good quality as OEM.
My body shop had to tinker around with it to make it fit properly....still not 100% IMO. |

Where did you get your grill at? I have a 2011 35d. I'm pretty sure my grill is different than yours?
I can't tell but do you have fender flares on it or not |

The CF ones from this link: http://www.bimmian.com/Colored-Round...for-BMW-E70-X5 I would recommend them over aftermarket replacements. I have aftermarket CF ones on my E46 and these ones were so much easier to install and they protect the OEM emblems. |

Once i install my gloss black performance kidney grill and new emblems i'll post a pic. Both were inspired by your truck. I have a 11 35d. Same color. We have the same wheels too. Loving the fender flares…i think those will be next. You should consider painting your calipers "bmw blue" that would look sick and really stand out. |
