Hey, I was wondering if anyone has any pics of a facelift X5 with blacked out grill.

I'm considering doing this, but not yet sure on how it will look.

THanks

Here you have a few pics of my X. Not a face lift but its black with black grille so you might get an idea off what it would look like.

Somehow I think if they came black, then there would be posts about making them chrome.

After seeing those pics of the black ones, I don't think it makes a noticeable difference in the look of the car -- certainly not enough to bother with the cost and/or time of painting them black.
