Arrow E82 Two Tone Grills, Black Inlet, Chrome Outlet

Hey All,

I give up!

I've searched everywhere and come across a blank, looking for a set of grills with the chrome outlet and black inlets. The parts department weren't able to identify it, yet when i'm driving about i see other E82's with this type grill all the time.

If anyone has a part number or aftermarket link i'd be very grateful for your help!

OP, don't know if you knew this, but 3 of the 4 one series models (128i, 135is, and the 1M) sold here in the US came with the black and chrome grilles. Only the 135i came with all chrome grilles.

I like the black and chrome grilles better as well and had them on my old 135i. A lot of people like the all black ones and put them on their cars instead. Nice to have choices.

Thanks for the info guys, i originally requested the two tone ones from the guys that did the paintwork on my 1M bumper but even they couldn't find it!

Helps to be a 1Addict member! May even get the sticker on my car!

Can consider black chrome surround grilles from iND as well. They match the shadowline trim really nicely and can even look somewhat anthracite in the right light.

I ran black center, chrome surround for a while too. Tons of options available.

The inner grille and outer frame are two separate pieces. If you buy a set of black grilles you can swap out the frame to get a two tone set.
