I'm looking to buy a 3rd-party gloss black kidney grille set on ebay, but I wondered if anyone knew the following about the fitting:

- Is it correct that the F30 and F31 fitting is the same?
- Is there a difference in fitting between original and LCI models? I've got a 2017 F31 LCI and a lot of the ebay listings say 2012-2015.
- Any reason why an official BMW set is worthwhile?

If anyone can help I'd be most grateful.

Generally yes. The Sports Edition was a new designation for LCI so, assume yes, but unconfirmed.

Correct Fit unlike a number of Non-OEM parts and £30 used price in UK.
