I just painted my grills silver and saved myself a fortune and it looks exactly the same as OEM.

PERSONALLY i think the skid plate would look better in white but it does look good anyway..........Nice X

My X is Metalic Black which means that the Skid plate will have to be colour coded.

Anyone with picture of colour coded Skid Plates?

You're not going to see it if you paint it black - titanium silver will be the way to go.

X5 Dawg- when I saw your pics that is when I HAD to get the skid plate and wheels. I could not believe that yours is an 01. It looks like new.

I did not realize your skid plate is white. I just went to the body shop and saw a silver mercedes and told them to use that paint. I thought silver would look best to make it look like aluminum or metal. I did not even think of having it match the paint. Oh well at least it looks ok.
