Matte black or glossy kidney grilles for AW 35i
 

I can't decide between the matte black or glossy kidney grilles for my Arctic White 35i. Does anyone have any pictures or thoughts to help me make my decision? Also, any recommendations where to buy these online?

I am seriously tempted to get the BMW performance grills for my white X5. I believe they are glossy, seen here. The full chrome on the 50i just doesn't look as good.

Get the color matched set from JLeviSW. I got the space gray on mine and it looks great. :thumbup:

gloss blk all the way !!

Im taking delivery of my X5 50i either today or tomorrow. Im getting the black performance grill and front window tint. Will post pictures

I've always liked the gloss black much more than the flat...

matte black:thumbup:

First post here, just picked up our AW 2010 X5 35d last Saturday. As I have the Shadowline* trim which is glossy black, I'm going with the glossy black grilles.


*Do all X5's have Shadowline? I came over from an E90 335i, so I'm not up to speed on the X's just yet...

No, I believe Shadowline trim only comes on the M, 35i Sport Activity or models offering the Sport Activity Package (ZAP).

gloss black. matte black looks cheap on the kidney grills.
