Installed a fresh passenger side c-pillar and a CCA grille badge.

Does anyone know where I may find some gloss black grilles? I must be missing something because I can't find them anywhere without the ///M tri-colors.

Didn't someone say that the sedan BMW Performance gloss black grilles are NLA, and ECS doesn't seem to be making their version anymore either?
Got my driver's side airbag replaced--finally replacing a third and last airbag (three others had already been done, thankfully). The service manager at the dealership said my ZHP was in--and I quote--"fantastic" shape, and then he commenced to babble repeatedly, "I REALLY like that car"... "I REALLY like that car". I was beaming, of course, and thinking, " and you guys will never, ever work on it!" (other than free recalls) : )
Bimmerworld claims to have gloss black grills... http://www.bimmerworld.com/Body-Aero...acelift_2.html

I got pissed off and decided to start my prepping for the ceramic weekend. I guess I'm walking to the office tomorrow.
What product are you putting on? Professionally or yourself? What prep work are you doing? At what point does bread become toast?Quote:

Paint:
Iron-X, Zymol bath and clay, dry.
Then I'll wet sand and apply touch up in a couple places, and wet sand again after dry. Then Meg's 105 compound with a MF cutting pad in a few places, but otherwise a yellow pad. Follow that with M205 polish with a white pad. This should complete the correction.
I'll use CarPro Eraser to clean off any chemical residue from the polish, and then apply the ceramic.
I went with the GTechniq EXO + Crystal Serum Light (CSL) kit.
