I'd say get Titanium or Glossy Black, I'm not a fan of Matte Black unless you have matte black rims or something to match, but the Titanium Grill matched my x6m reps pretty well:
Do you happen to have a front shot? I don't really notice the silver mesh colored grills on yours?

Sure here you go... The mesh grills are black actually not silver.

photos of mine, black sapphire with a gloss black factory bmw grill(s)
the black gloss looks great because it matches the shadow trim ect...

(they are really easy to pop in and out)

black on black is nice, but an all around black is what adds the touch, if your mesh grill is silver then definitely go with titanium
