Research on Grille for BMW 328i

The front of your BMW 328i has a distinctive appearance thanks to the iconic pair of kidney-shaped grilles. These grilles protect your car's radiator and give your vehicle is signature look. Should you want to upgrade your BMW's design to more stylish grilles or replace a damaged one, you should consider a few things before getting your BMW grille replacement.

BMW Grille History

The grille on your BMW 328i has a rich history that you may not be aware of. The pair of grilles on the front was one of the first things people recognized on the initial run of BMW cars. Though the overall design of the car has changed throughout the years, the pair of grilles on the front has not. Rumors abound as to the exact origin of the grille. Some claim that it was supposed to look like a moustache, but if you look at the original grilles, they were tall ovals and nothing like a moustache in shape. The most likely scenario is that a designer for BMW saw the grille on an Italian car which had its company later bought out by Bavarian Motor Works (BMW). The dual grilles protected the double radiator behind them. Because there are two halves to the radiator grille, you will most likely need to order each half separately, but it is best to replace both halves at the same time to ensure that your grille looks uniform all the way across.

Grille Options

One of the things you will notice when getting a new grille is the range of options you have. Materials can vary from plastic to chrome, and you can get shiny metallic-looking grilles or sleek black models. You may find the grilles in pairs or individually. Be sure to always order your grille by your model year because, though they may look the same, subtle differences between model years may keep the grille from one year of a BMW 328i not fit on another model year.

Where you shop, and the type of grille you choose can affect the price.
