help needed on G60 front bumper

hey guys. need advice from some of you who may have some idea how to replace this part with a matt chrome one (fingered ).



Easiest way would be to do a wrap on it but I reckon if this is just a "snap and go" part without the need for a bumper removal, I will just go for it instead.

I chanced upon the Chinese-spec G60 and couldn't help but notice the difference this tiny strip could make... in my opinion, a pretty sharp contrast against the gloss black m-sport bumper.





Thanks in advance !

These special attachments are slightly gold colored and are probably only made in China.
The best thing is to wrap the parts of your choice in the corresponding color.

hey ! Thanks for the advice ! The one I'm going for is matt chrome, the same colour as the grille. The funky bronze-gold is the "launch edition".

Probably I'll just stick to wrap !

Cheers

Where did you find the exploded view parts catalog for the G60? RealOEM stopped updating about 3-4 years ago. Can you share a link?

I use our German catalog.
You can try entering your VIN here. Maybe it works.
