black facelift X5 with blacked out grill? Pics? Anyone? Thanks!
 

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

what do you mean by blakced out grill, are you talking about the kidney grilll ?

yeah the kidney grill. i have a 3.0 so the gills are black but the kidney is lined with chrome, i wanted to see pictures of the chrome lining painted black

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. :rofl: :rofl:

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.

Ohhh it does! Makes it alot meaner!
