Edit: Is that a custom grille, or did a model actually come like that? |

I definitely like it, something different that could compliment the stock 4.x eBay kits.. It'd be cheaper overall than a few of the conplete bumper replacement kits I've also been randomly looking.

On a lesser scale, I could potentially only cut out the vertical bars in the bumper and put a full mesh grille behind there. The new front spoiler should cover the holes where the bars were.

I've been eyeing this Photoshopped image with a front bumper from an X5M that I found on Google Images for quiet a long time, but getting it produced is another story.

I did something similar to this on my 91 MR2 turbo where I cut out the vertical slats. Doing this would require some plastic weld, but it seems very doable.

This is the only other kit I'd consider, but I'm not set on how low the front and rear overhangs are, then the sides don't get touched, so it screams bodykit too much from the sides since it's not a multiple piece kit w/ side skirts. At this point I'm going to look into opening the grill like in the picture, smooth out and carbon wrap all the plastic like jn the X6M picture I attached, then get that 4.6is kit and call it a day. Not overkill but enough to be noticeably better.

The grille in the pic is off an X5M E70 but its "photochopped".Its widely available as universal and you cut it to size.Its called "honeycomb" because the hole effects. |
