The kidney grille is the most recognisable design feature on any BMW, and upgrading it is one of the single most impactful exterior modifications you can make to your G20 or G21 3 Series. This XVIP front bumper kidney grille is precision engineered as a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory grille on BMW 3 Series models produced between 2019 and 2023, covering sedan and touring body styles across all major variants including 318i, 320i, 320d, 330i, 330e, 330i xDrive, M340i, and M340i xDrive.
Available in a wide range of finishes, this grille set lets you personalise the front end of your 3 Series in a way that genuinely changes how the car looks from the road. Choose from classic single or double slat designs in matte black, glossy black, chrome black, and chrome silver, through to bold BMW M-colour accent and eye-catching diamond mesh patterns. With over 500 units sold and a strong 4.6 star verified buyer rating, this grille set has proven itself as a go-to exterior upgrade for G20 owners worldwide. Verified buyers specifically call out the perfect fit on multiple variants including the G20 320d 2020.
Key Features and Benefits
This is a direct replacement grille, meaning it fits straight into the factory mounting points with no cutting, drilling, or bodywork modification required. The fitment is precise and confirmed by buyers across multiple build years and variants, including those with front cameras fitted.
The diamond mesh pattern option is the stand-out design choice in this range, giving the front end a look that references BMW’s own high-end Swarovski crystal grille aesthetic at a fraction of the price. It is a genuinely distinctive upgrade that sets the G20 apart from standard specification examples on the road.
The slat-style options in both single and double configurations are more understated and work particularly well on blacked-out M Sport specification cars, delivering a stealthy, cohesive front-end appearance without drawing too much attention.
Constructed from high-quality ABS plastic with a painted surface finish, the grille maintains its appearance over time and resists the wear and UV fade that can affect lower-quality aftermarket parts. The upper front placement also contributes to improved airflow through to the radiator, which can support better cooling over standard spec grilles depending on the opening design selected.
A front camera cutout version is available for vehicles equipped with a front parking camera. Buyers should confirm this requirement before ordering.

Installation Notes and Special Functions
This grille is engineered as a direct replacement and installs by removing the factory grille and fitting the new unit into the existing mounting points. No modification to the vehicle is required. Professional installation is highly recommended to ensure correct alignment and to avoid any risk of damage to the front bumper or surrounding trim during removal and refitting. No installation instructions are included in the package.
Buyers with a front parking camera should confirm the camera-compatible version is selected prior to purchase. If you receive extra clips or brackets with the package, these are typically supplementary mounting hardware to assist with secure fitment.le 318i 320i 330i M340i Direct Fit No Modification Required
