Thoughts on Euro Grills?

[Farbin Kaiber]

I about you guys, but my car came with them factory, so they are staying.

I got a set broken. I called and sent me another the next day no charge or return or proof of broken item

Never found the point in spending $$$ on Euro Grills (unless the stock ones are in terrible shape). The difference is so negligible IMO.

I've had the kopi ones for about 6 years. the quality is meh but most people can't tell. mine are cracked though (cheap, thin plastic) and I won't buy the replicas again, want to pick up another new OEM set before they go NLA.

The Kopi ones from abrahams motorsport are perfectly fine. Ive had mine on for months and they have not dulled, a friend has had them for years. You just got a lemon or a UPS guy stepped on your package.

... & the design of the louvres on the euro grills cools the engine better, too

Euro grills are something you do cause you have an extra $30 in pocket, and want to do *something*.....With out turning a wrench, or cracking open a motor.

Well it use to be $30....Still...I'd never buy aftermarket plastic parts - unless it has great reviews. Some of it is all Chinese crap that isn't UV stable, it's the cheapest plastic they could inject into the machines - Never seem an abrahabs stuff - but...

I got mine from the motherland shortly after I got my e30. It's kinda-a-kick to have a *real* euro part on your car.

3-4 years ago, I cleaned it with dishwashing soap, filled a few nicks with body filler, scrubbed it down with a 600 grit, and hit it with SEM trim pant. Looks as good as new - only wish I had it it with a coat of wax to help wash off the bugs in the summer.

I bought my kopi grills from Abrahams and no complaints, a couple years ago though.
It's the subtle changes that make the biggest difference.

Huh. I can tell from a mile away lol.

When I'm seeing my car every day, I enjoy looking at the sight of euro grills. It might be subtle to some but I notice walking to my car each time to go for a drive.

Agreed. Euro grilles were one of the first aesthetic mods i did...for a reason. They look better.

I hate euro anything

[Wschnitz]

How can you not tell lol, the US grilles have those stupid useless cutouts to "make sure light output isnt impaired"

Just got these months ago, they fit fine:

I think euro grills are overhyped. It's such a suttle difference. Even a seasoned e30er can't tell, unless he is specifically inspecting the grills.

I'm with you. Especially for the price, not worth it IMO.

I've had my abraham motorsport ones for a year now and they're still perfect. The foam is shitty quality but that doesn't bother me too much.

Huh. I can tell from a mile away lol.

agreed, it's just slightly more aggressive. I love it.
