G30 LCI CF Grille without front parking camera?
I’m looking for an OEM BMW carbon fiber grille for my LCI G30 without the cutout for the camera, appears to be part number 51-71-2-475-453 but I can’t find it anywhere online. Can only find 51-71-2-469-540 which has the cutout for the parking camera, and the sites that stock this one recommend adding plug 51-11-7-933-177 if you don’t have the camera.
Has anyone seen 51-71-2-475-453 in the wild, or does it not exist?

I am pretty sure the grill is the same for both with and without a camera, but it comes with a plug if you don't have a camera. If you do, you take the plug out. This is how it is on my X5.

Installed the OEM carbon fiber grille and plug recently, massive weight savings, car feels like a Miata now!
Cerium Grey Grille (no plug needed): 1,090 g Carbon Fiber Grille (with camera plug): 917 g Difference of 173 g or 0.381 lbs. |
