you should just get your OEMs painted.

mine did not,
it came with a bunch of plastic screws that i have no idea where they were supposed to go.
but the "frame" pieces have placed for U clips that act as the threading to attach the chin spoiler and the side fins, did not come with the kit.
My local ace hardware had stuff that was usable

its kind of bs that they don't come with it after paying that much money...what color is your car? i feel like it would look so much better on a white instead of black

Never had an issue with IND paint not matching and I've had their products on a couple of my cars. How can you even say the match would be better?

I actually asked a local bmw dealer if they sell them and they said they actually use IND as a source to get them so I'm sure they're good...once i make all the changes I'm gone send pictures!! can't wait!
