Anyone make a grill mesh protector for the front lower spoiler yet?

Those big spaces that leave the front rad exposed are definetly going to get damaged. Looking to order one for my incoming G99.

Not sure why BMW does this. Same issue on my G87 M2. I know a few guys that BMW wouldn't warranty the damage rad.

Don't follow too closely.

Considering the cars were JUST delivered to customers I doubt anyone would have anything made for it this fast. I'm sure someone is on it though....

Looking at pics the front radiator/coolers do look like they have at least a plastic guard over them which helps

No, they don't, not over all of them. You can put your hand all the way through to the lower radiator, and curve it up from beneath to infront of the upper radiator. I did it on this brand new car this week.

Not to mention the top of the oil cooler is fully exposed now. I posted a pic in my thread I started.

what i meant was there is a black plastic trim on top of the radiator/coolers (attached to it) Its not the best but its better than not having anything there.

Yesterday I got down on my hands and knees and looked at the M5 my dealer just got in. Both of them have black plastic grills covering both of the vertical coolers. I would say as tight together as their ribs are I would feel comfortable that they will offer good protection.

And the red interior is really a bright red! Much more so than my M4 red interior. Love it actually!

Did you get a chance to look at the dash and and the door materials? I hear people say it's leather but it looks like plastic

[Moewron]

It's BMW's soft-touch plastic on the dash and upper door panels... same stuff as on the iX. It's not leather, but its actually pretty nice to the touch.

I’m waiting for full leather. It’s nice, it not nice enough…

Okay hold on let me update my spreadsheet with that information.
