Cerium grille on shadowline M550i LCI

Das BMW · 02-12-2023, 10:22 AM

Curious if anyone has put a cerium grille back onto a shadowline-packaged LCI? Particularly an M550i?

I love everything about the shadowline package (body colored mirror caps, darker headlight unit), but feel like the black grille removes some personality (with blue paint). Curious how a Cerium grille would look on it.

Here are some photos of my 2020 Black Sapphire M550 with Shadowline and Cerium trim taken by the dealer for posting online. I've removed some of their advertising. Hope this helps.

I currently have a pre lci 530e and have a cerium gray grill and also changed the lower trim, looks much better than original chrom grill and the black trim comes with the shadowline pkg. I have photo of it in my profile.

I think the 2020 models ( at least those in the U.K.) had cerium by default , at least the press cars did on the videos

I think it looks rather classy to be honest but at least I’m the U.K. , the current ones do not appear to now although I guess you could change at your expense if you wanted
