Just replaced my grills on my F30 using this video as a guide...what a huge help. Thanks Bryan!
Awesome, glad to hear!
I watched about 5 videos to learn this process and this was the best one. The reach through method just results in bent clips and it makes it so much more difficult to push through. I spent 15 minutes scraping my fingers through the grill, it took less time to do it like this and far less painful on the fingers. My mineral grey 330D looks so much better now
I don't have any BMW, but i still watch this video
Cool, thanks!
Just finished swapping to the carbon fiber grills. This video made it extremely simple. Took about 15 minutes. Thanks for all the videos you put out.
Just done my F30, looks superb though my hands are big managed to prize the clips without breaking them, also your finishing touch lining it all up makes it look so much cleaner. Thanks
BEST BMW channel on YT PERIOD! Keep up the great work Brian.
Thank you!! Wait until you see what we have in store for the near future 😎
well done man, I just tried another video before this one. The difference and clarity of your video is clear. Cheers man.
Good video. I installed the black grills on a F32, same procedure. I found it easier to start with unclipping the centre clip near the middle first as these were the hardest to unclip.
Great video, I just got my new grilles today and will be putting them on. I can’t wait to see it as I have the same color on my 340i. I got the M style with the M colors (I wanted the all black but I guess I wasn’t paying 100% attention when I ordered!) and this will be my first modification of the car. I have only owned it for two weeks and plan to work my way into more updates-these videos are a big help, thanks!
i swear i love this channel more and more everytime u post a video. keep em coming!!
Thanks! Many, many more coming..
Fist off, I love your videos. I’m not super mechanically inclined but your videos give me the confidence to do some of these jobs so thanks for all the content! lol I love how easily these cooperated for you. Mine didn’t start to budge till the last 2 clips. My tabs were hard enough that i used a plastic trim tool to push them down. But in the end they look great on my car! Also, thank you for letting us know what tools we’ll need to do the job. I love not having to lug my whole tool box next to my car.
I remember watching these videos when they were new. I always wanted a F32 and would watch these videos just because. Fast forward and the channel has grown exponentially and I now have a F32.
I just did this yesterday on my F31 LCI, same gloss black M3 style kidneys, looks so much better than the chrome ones.
Great tutorial. I plan to do this on my F30 335i soon. I think the m style grill looks awesome on that car
If you don't put the first grill back in, the second grill is much easier to get out by going through the 1st grill hole to release the tabs.
Since I had everything opened up on the top, it was just as easy to reach over. The old taps had some plastidip on them, but it still came out easy
Kies Motorsports still don't understand why people plastidip when it's easier and cheap just to replace.
Yea, not a fan. I did it on my old Wrx, but it got weird after it baked in the sun
Thanks for this informative vid. I’m now replacing my F30 grills with the new G20 grill look!
Thanks, you made this very easy to understand, and as a result, I was able to change my grill very quickly. It is a cheap and simple upgrade. 👍
This video worked better then the other ones I watched thank you 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hey Brian I ordered my grills it came in three days and they looks awesome. Great video.!!
Great!!
Thanks for this mate. Just did mine on my f31, used the same m3 style ones as you. I found my bumper wasn't as flexible as yours looks, but I got it done in the end. Looks great! Front splitter next I think!
bootmod3
Thanks for your video. Just successfully changed my kidney grills on ‘17 340i. Was a breeze. 10 min with your help. Thanks again
Great to hear!
really glad u got 335 .. amazing looking
i can actually see the effort
Thanks!
Many thanks, now Im more confident to do this myself. I hope it's as easy as you make it look....
This video was so helpful.
Cheers Brian✌🏽
I ordered some black ones I’m excited to install these as well as the mirror covers
this guy is good, like that job you've done boy
I’m doing this this weekend, I’m also adding red piping in those two slanted poles behind the grill.
Great job pal. I'm ready to change mines this week end. Thks
Thank you very much for your video. I realigned my hood with your tips and video how-to. Expert advice.
Very well layout and informative video you made. Thanks!
Thanks!
Gonna be doing mines on Tuesday this video has giving me a fair idea what I'm at
I did this about two weeks ago on my f36 and I did not really need to undo any screws and bother with bumper realignment. I just squeezed my fingers through the grill slats and undid the latches. It is a tight squeeze and my fingers were a bit sore, but after around 10 minutes I was done. Also dont put the new grill in when you still have the other old one on! Put your hand through the hole and reach out to undo the latches on the second grill. It makes it so much easier.. ;)
Love the black kidney grilles. Looks awesome man!
Thanks, Michael!
well... I just did my f80 2016...the bumper did not bend as easily as shown and it was difficult to get my hand inside ...but in the end I made it . thanks for the video
Great video really helped me get my grills out today
did installation today. All bolts take the same size Torx bit (2014 328i). Total time was 45 minutes including a break to go back and look at the video several times.
Used this today, thanks Bryan! 👍🏼
Good video, shame I don't have a competent guy like you here in Ireland, was going to get the easy access fitted to the drivers door for wireless access but I can't find someone will to take on the challenge!!!
Thanks so much! Sorry, wish I was able to help!
This great video helped me fit my kidney grill on my F32👍🏾
Kies was super helpful... thanks
Got a set today, going to fit them on just now.
just did mine F32. Simple. If you got big hands like me start from top like this guy did. and take the other side out once you have one of them off that way you can just reach in. Dont be scared to pull on bumper a little bit it gives a good amount of pull but dont go hulk on it either. Took me about 30 min
You helped me a lots! Thank you :)
Thank God I re-watched this after installing them, I left the weather stripping in the engine bay😐 That could have been bad. Thanks though, only took about 20mins!
Thanks bro! Just did mine this afternoon and the install when smoothly thanks to your vid. Much better process than that other idiot's video that just yanked the grill out by hand. Thanks for showing us how to do it right!
Awesome, thanks! Yea, some people like to be rough and break fins trying to do it faster. Slow and steady wins the race :)
I just did this with my 2018 440i. Newer models don’t let you pull the front of the car as far back so putting your hand in the car is almost impossible. The best way to do this is using a screwdriver as a lever to pop each tag without even opening the face of the car. I don’t know why nobody has made this video it’s definitely the best method
Thank you! First grille replacement video that calls out the groove on the headlight. The first time I replaced mine, I couldn't for the life of me figure out why my bumper and hood weren't laying flush.
Ahh, yes, that's why! Also a very good tip when installing new headlights 😀
Kies Motorsports Got headlight recommendations? I remember a teaser video, but haven't seen anything since. I really need to change mine out.
It's little details and nuances like these that make instructional videos so valuable! Great job Kies Motorsports!
Your videos are very informative, thank you for contributing to the BMW community.
Thanks for the kind words 😀
Thank you for the video!
Good video , thanks for ur help
very helpful thanks bro
Thank you, I appreciate it.
It looks easy and I would like to try it. Any other suggestions?
best clip for this mod out there
Thanks!
You can take the whole bumper off to replace the grilles. I know more screws to remove but a lot easier to remove the grilles. Less bending the bumper at well.
Having just done this, the worrying part is bending the front end of your 25K pride and joy to get your hand down to reach the tabs. Took me an hour and a half to get the first one out and I still broke off two of the tabs, they are quite brittle if pushed the wrong way. If you break the tabs off it doesn’t really matter if you’re not interested in retaining the old chrome grilles, it doesn’t affect the new installation. After removing one grille, don’t put the new grille in, as you can use the hole to reach through to find the tabs on the second. It took me 5 mins to fit the second one. Check the bonnet / fender gap afterwards, you may need to make a small adjustment when tightening the screws down to ensure an equal bonnet / fender gap all the way along. Note, some manufacturers provide a tool to reach down to the tabs. I wish I’d known that before scraping the skin off my hand!!
Well done. Many thx
If you take 1 side out you can reach from the gap Tru the other side its a little bit easyer specially on the lci
Beautiful car Kies
Thanks!
Nice looking car, these grills give an aggressive look to the car
Great video, but it was a lot harder than it looked. The grills on my F34 took a lot of force to pop out.
thank you major help 🤝
Just did the same thing on my M4, but the bumper doesn't flex outwards nearly as much as in the vid. Was a bit more difficult on the F82, but I just removed one grill, and used that big opening to get the other one out.
Nice! Yea, I haven't done an M4 Grille, but I did a 6 series, and it was a lot more rigid than an F30
great tutorial. a far cry from most videos on the subject i've seen, where they dont show everything, especially how to remove the grills. thanks!
Thanks!
Looks much better with these grills... I will replace them on my f34!!
Appreciate you💪🏽
Excellent guide Bryan. Thank you very much for taking the time to show us like minded BMW enthusiasts how to improve our F30s, be it cosmetically and/or performance wise. Following your guide made it simple to swap out my grilles. Looks amazing.
You are the best
Very helpful.
Glad it helped!
Stupid question, but is the grill the same for the F30 and F30 m sport variants? :) Great video
Just did my F32, not as easy as shown haha, f32 doesn't bend out as nicely, few scratches and cuts on hand, but didn't need to take the whole bumper off.
Some are easier than others, f32 isn’t bad but 6 series cars are a pain lol
Yea, mine feel like they’re superglued in there... they don’t want to come out.. ha.
This can be done without need for any tools or opening the top part of the bumper and thus no alignment issues or risk cracking bumper plastic. Great updated nonetheless.
Thank you
Im about to put the exact same double black grill on a white 2014 320i xdrive with black rims!!
What’s that awesome blue air filter you got there?
Thanks. Got them off in seconds!
oooh your channel is blowing up nicely.
Thanks! Let's keep it going..
Black is the best looking 🥶🥵
Hey there, I'm having a bit of trouble undoing the tabs on my 320I F30. Could you clarify which direction I need to pull the tab to undo it?
Nice video, but the grill install is about 200% more difficult than you made it out to be. They do not just pop right out on the F32. Took a lot more maneuvering to get them unclipped. I did find your notes on lining up the screws quite helpful.
My new double slat glossy black grills are 🔥 though.
I have a F32 too and when I had to remove mine that was such a pain in the ass wayyyy more difficult than he made it out to be in the vidro and the clips on F32 are also way harder to get them unclipped.
If you want to save yourself the job of releasing the bumper. You can reach the clips with back of a bike spoke and release them. 7 Minutes and the job is done
Couldn't bend my bumper quite far back enough to get my whole arm in during cold weather. I'll wait til summer
Warm weather makes a difference, think if I did mine on a cold day, it would not have been so flexible.
Groovy !
Are you interested in doing a video of putting and M Sport bumper on a 2014 f30 wagon? I wanted to do the swap and I live in New Jersey.
Kyle
Wasnt able to do it, just affraid if I pull the bumper like this, that it will brake..no space at all
I tried to do this on 430i Gran Coupe. There's no way to place your hand inside - it's like it has whole additional metal part across entire bumper which I'm not sure I can match looking at this car. Or at least it's so tightly placed I simply can't push my hand properly inside.
thanks bro
Sure thing!
The easiest way to take out the second grill is to reach into the hole of the first grill you take off.
Maybe I’m late but having trouble finding where I need to use the T25 please help
You took a loaner car apart !!!! O.0 SAVAGE ...!!!
Will this grill fit in my 3-Series 328d BMW? If not what M3 type of grill would fit? Please help!
Is the grill removal process the same on the lci (post-2015)? I cant get mine to come off..
How about on a 2020 G20 M340xi. I have the hideous gold/bling stock grill, BMW now sells a black grill but wants $169. to install. I've swapped out grills on an 2011 550i, that was easy.
I removed the top brackets and 2 12mm. plastic allen screws from the lower outside on the G20. I can't see or feel were the bottom is clipped in. Any ideas?
nice broo
Thanks!
Hey mate i did what you said but on bonet slightly gap left what i have to do can you help me please
Just replaced the grill on my 2017 F30 using this video. Thank you Brian!
my bumper doesn't bend that much. also i have some additional rubber inside and barely reach the corner clips on top...bottom ones no chance...i'm just gonna take the bumper of...because i'm trying to bend it and i'm afraid it'll snap
You made it look so easy. It took me over 2 hours to remove the old grills.
the first attempt is always the slowest. Technique and the right tools make you can do this in 30 minutes
Do you know if the m3 grill if a differently shaped the m4 grill. Basically what I wanna figure out if a m3 grill fit in the 335! M sport
Brian what's a good way to give an F30 dual exhausts, one on each side, any recommendations?
I have something coming soon for that! Email me and I'll talk to you about it
