Added a BMW OEM Carbon Fiber Grill
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com I ended up buying it from BMW of Manhattan along with a CF Engine cover set and Expansion Set, they've beat everyone else's price for it too. It fit like OJ's glove and perfect. Last edited by NoMods; 03-31-2023 at 03:11 PM.. |

100% agreed and not worth the frustration and my time wasted. The company was not RW Carbon, it's the other one in CA that is the major supplier for CF parts, but their CS has always been top notch letting me return it because it was so f-ed up, they previously did replace my CF interior trim pieces that were out of spec too.

Here's what the non-branded $400 one looks like, I wasted so much time originally trying to fix it but there's no way and I was happy they refunded me 100% of my money, the 3rd party seller was fantastic in helping me as it wasn't their fault either.

Sounds like another autotecknic cf failure and perhaps Ben who I know sells a lot of their stuff?
I’ve had like 50% success rate on autotecknic products. Even less on their cf. had a cf oil cap that I had tos end back as it started delaminating within a few months. And their steering wheel trim is terrible fitment despite sending me 2 of them. And their other cf trim the alcantara doesn’t match oem and the plastic welds they use to hold the cf trim to the back plate is already coming apart.
