should i swap to black grilles?
i believe everything else (lower mesh, fog light mesh) is black... so why does the kidney grilles come in silver? (or do they come black?) i can't tell what's stock and what's been changed... anyone w/alpine white thought about this? any pics?

had them on the e53. very easy installation and got the off ebay(flat black). installation is the easy part. deciding whether to get them is the hard part. i personally dont think they look good. but i saw a fully loaded e70 at the dealership that had it and it looked awsome. it was also vinyle wrapped in carbon fiber so that skewed my opinion

I personally think it looks great, on my x3, I have the M/sport pkg white with the black grills, and it looks awsome with the dark tinited windows.. Go for it... Get them and if you don't like the look, there is always someone on these forums looking to switch out...

I like the look of both the Black and Silver grills. We have the Black ones on. These are pictures of our X5 as it was just delivered to the dealership before we brought it home...

i like the black grille... your rides look nice with it..
I think it will look perfect on the AW w/m-sport pkg... so, I am ordering them on ebay... I'm also planning on installing an m pedal kit to match the aluminum trim... also off ebay.. that and the dinan stage 1 (or 2 if available by mid-summer) and that should be it... will post pics once i have done my installs...
