I'm finding the left side for sale by vendors, but it appears the right side is sold out. Anyone have an extra one just laying around they wanna sell me? Or know where I can find one? :dunno

I think someone had to order one side from Canada? When I'm not on mobile I'll try to edit in a link.

Yeah, I called that same dealership yesterday (BMW Laval) and they dont have any more in stock. Oh and I also called all the BMW dealerships in the GTA area and none have them in stock :(

Call around the obscure BMW dealerships with your fingers crossed :)

I must have lucked out and grabbed the last pair! I picked them up about a month ago from Maranello BMW in Vaughn Ontario

Yes, you did luck out! I called them in the last few weeks and they didn't have any left.

Check BMW Gallery in Maine or Kuni BMW in Oregon. From what I can see they show to have 1 in stock. I ordered one from a dealer in Minnesota about a month ago and got their last one.
The part number is 51 13 2 158 542

ECSTunings gloss black grills are of an incredibly durable quality and can really take a beating on harsh roads, ive had a lot of road work locally have 0 chips on mine. Installed in February this year with no fitment issues

Nothing, just want to black them out. I like the look better to go with the rest of the trim. ;)

The only ones they have right now have the "tri-color" on the left grill. Not sure I like that.

Completely understand, if you're willing to pay OEM performance quality I'd get in contact with a rep over at ECS and just see if you could sign up for an email notification of when the Gloss Blacks are back in stock, worth every penny if you ask me [emoji1598]

Went through this search last month and came up completely empty with regard to OEM pieces.

So I went with these and am very happy thus far considering how much they cost (and fit perfectly): http://a.co/1Db8kNJ

Thanks, Marc. I guess I don't have much of a choice. I may try those...good price too.

Yep. Clicked right into place. Not made of high quality material but wasn't expecting that for $35. Much better looking than the tired matte black grilles I had on there
