E89 original kidney grilles wanted.
Happy to swap for used black gloss currently fitted to my car or beer tokens.

I think that I have some out in the annex to the garage. I'll check in the next couple of days. If they are there, they're the ones that came with the car - shown below - that I replaced last year.

I was tempted to change my oem for the gloss black ones but decided against it, I think the OEM ones look much better .

Agreed, especially on a black car like ours. It needs the contrast to break it up a bit, but a previous owner clearly thought he knew better. :roll:

I had a look but, unfortunately, no luck in finding them. Sorry!

I have a set of the chrome and black ones. Wouldn't want to swap as I already have gloss black, but would sell them.

Not really sure what they're going for. Where are you based; I'm near Harrogate. How does £40 sound?

:thumbsup: That sounds okay, though I'm in Bristol so a bit of a hike.
I'm happy to pay postage if you're willing to package them?

I'll have a look for a box and get a myhermes quote for you. Will probably be tomorrow though now if that's ok?
