    I bought the Kopi ones from abrahams motorsport and was disappointed in the quality and couldn't get them to fit. Gave up and put the US ones back on.

      it's like $50, just work some OT.
      They are perfect for when a foul ball bounces in front of your car and smashes the grille. Thanks god that's all that happened. I have real ones hiding in mint for car shows.

        I've had Kopi in the past and wasn't happy in the finish. Although fit was fine, the finish is just bare matte plastic that is rough around the edges. Just purchased OEM Euro grills and there is a night and day difference. Around three times the price, for me, worth every penny.

            I also enjoy my euro grills. I bought a package set on here from a member (smileys and grills) but he screwed me and 5 other people over. They where rusted, a bulb blew up inside so it was all smokey/foggy... He never did sign into his r3v account again. At least he sent something?

            Anyways, the grills he sent where in good shape and happy I have a set on my car.

            edit: there also OEM and have perfect fitment, but my car's never had a fender removed, which can affect fitment

              Euro grilles make more sense than Euro check panels.

              And they're light years better than those stupid looking Euro plates.

                I personally wouldn't care for them, but my car is Grey mkt Euro so I have all them already installed.

                    this. and i like them. had an OEM set on the last e30. it is a subtle difference, but it just gives the "face" of the car a little bit of glare.

                      If my car came with euro grills I wouldn't be upset. I'm one of the few people that actually like the aftermarket "Eyebrows" so I run those, they tend to look pretty good if left black, especially on a black car.

                        If you have the Kopi and OE grills side by side you can really see the wavyness of the top bar running across the headlights that's omitted from the US grills.
