JCW grille won't fit on 2011+ non-S. With a 2010 you should be fine.

The horizontal distance (back-front) between the top and bottom mounting points for the grille (on the radiator support and bumper, respectively) is different on a 2011+ than on a '07-10. The top portion of the grille (with the holes for the pins) doesn't lay flush against the radiator support and the angle of the grille is wrong.
