Pic request of US-spec M Sport; of side vents where the fogs would be

If some gentle american soul could take a well lit picture of that area I would be really happy. I wanna see how the whole vent-area looks in detail, mesh and all.

Thank you :-)

Sweet ride! Appreciate the pics, but I would like a close-up of what I marked below. Maybe even an answer to whats hiding behind the mesh to the right of the small cooler, is it some kind of air duct and if so where does it lead? Or is it just a wall to block debris from getting in...

If you or anyone else could help me I'd send a hug

Great pictures man, thank you )

Now I can see that the area I marked as 1 is not an air duct, theres plastic right behind the mesh right? The question now is how it looks on the opposite side, marked as 2. Is the mesh blocked there as well, meaning the only opening/air duct in this whole area is the one leading to that radiator?

*hug*

The pics I posted last night were taken in my garage.. I'll see if I can take a look in daylight.

May I ask why this matters to you? Are you planning a fog light delete or you're sending this information to some car manufacturer in China?

Haha next I'll ask someone to strip the engine apart no you were exactly right with the first suggestion, fog delete problem is since EU spec gets the fogs we simply dont have the two coolers (at least the 328i, the 335i has one cooler only)... to believe some americans were bitchin bout not getting fogs sayin they get ripped of, I'll take the coolers any day man!!
Gotta figure something out for the cooler space, dont wanna collect debris there.
