BMW 5 Series (Pre-LCI) - Black grill
Hi Everyone!
I know a popular mod is to replace the stock silver grills on the pre-LCI 5'er with the double or single black grills. A couple of questions: What do you guys prefer matte black or shiny black?! Any pictures?! I'm having a hard time decide! Thanks for the feedback!

I went with the genuine ones which only come in glossy back.
They are also very easy to replace, compared to older 5 series, it’s literally a 90 second job. |

Looks great! I think I'll go with glossy black double slat!

I'm trying to black everything out. Just finished the window trims. Could use some black rims.

And I find it odd you had to wrap your door trim...you have the M package and I assume (probably wrong) that all M package cars come with shadowline trim, mine did. I also did the reflector delete/painted route on the front bumper and the rear bumper. Painted the front ones myself and wrapped the rear ones, pretty easy job. I can't wrap window trim, tried it on an Audi once, looked awful! I don't have the patience or the skill set apparently. |
