Can anyone point me in the direction of the best place to buy an f30 m3 style grill for my facelift 335d?

I've seen this one....

and the dealer can get this one - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-F30-F3...item4aed8f9473

But I prefer the 2 slat one...


Anywhere else I should look?

I have M4-style gloss black double-slat kidney grills on my F32. Got them from RW carbon for around $100 and installed them myself in about 90 minutes. Double slat looks much much much better than the oem single slat black grills IMO.

Not a typo. Took me about 70 minutes to get off the first grill, 15 to get off the second one, and 5 minutes to put in the new ones. Plus I bruised my forearms decently, it was just an absolute PITA to pull back the bumper and reach behind there to pop off the clips holding the OEM grills in place.
