Front lower spoiler mesh grills??

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 G987 M2. I know a few guys that BMW wouldn't warranty the damage rad.

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.
