IND | F85 X5M Black Chrome Side Grille Set



BMW’s Edition series was by far one of the most popular looks for the E9x M3 cars, offering a depth and complexity that was impossible with normal painted gloss black grilles. The Edition grilles featured a “black chrome” appearance - glossy chrome sheen without the glare and dark enough in color to complement BMW's window trim and glazing.

BMW has not offered this finish for the newer chassis, so our paint technicians at IND have spent considerable effort in creating our own version of this beautiful finish. Our finish has been developed in-house with a proprietary process that has not been used previously, outside of IND.

IND is happy to extend this option for the F85 X5M's cosmetics. The IND F85 X5M Black Chrome Side Grilles are painted in house utilizing an OEM core as a base.








IND F85 X5M Black Chrome Side Grille Set $299.00


Please contact IND by phone or email for more information or to place your order.

Unfortunately not as the F85 X5M and F86 X6M have cutouts in the fenders to accommodate the clips in the trim that are required in addition to double sided tape to secure the new grille in place - and the F15 X5 / F16 X6 do not have said cutouts.

Hey Cat,

From what I understand, the fender grilles will fit on the regular F15s if you simply shave off the tabs and apply double sided tape. The air breather on the F15 is exactly the same shape and size as the F85.

Good to know!

I will be sure to contact you in the event we decide to go a different direction with these.
