2023 M850 Front Kidney Grill

Hi, anyone attempted to replace their 2021/2022 Kidney Grill to the new 2023 LCI grill. Is it easy to replace and cancel the curtains on the non LCI?

I'm looking on closing a deal on a 2021 loaded with carbon fibre package interior/exterior but I want to negotiate with the dealer to replace the mirror caps and grill with the 2023 model. Thanks

Not sure about the mirrors.

The grill is not a direct fitment…tabs have to be modified and broken off, etc. there is a previous post about this, do a search for “grill”. The dealer will likely not do any modification that just doesn’t snap into place, unfortunately the new grill doesn’t.

If you mean the m performance mirror caps, yeah it's possible, but the carbon cap is ~700€ per piece and you also need a new supporting ring ~100€ per piece.

For grill you can read here https://f92.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...php?p=30106627, dealer will not do this.
