I got my R56 aero grill about 3/4 weeks ago, had it on and was fine. Last week i was driving down the M42 and it just blew off! So i went down to my local dealer and i have to pay for a new one. However, if the trim didnt fit properly - its a defect? Right?

Adam i think the clips if right in would have stopped this, or the plastic pannel pins at top as i changed mine when i fitted my Spots, can't see how it flew off unless not clipped or clips broken at bottom, hope you get it sorted out, not any on ebay yet lots of other stuff though.

Well, when i saw it was loose i pushed it as far back as i could, and it still came loose again. I will enquire when i go to pick it up from BMW. Yea, i did have a quick look on ebay, but there is not that much on there for the R56 :[ :[
