After my rear overhaul, I think I'm done with tastefully modding my front end now. I may remove the carbon fiber stripes and probably get black kidney grills.

Nice shot!

She's a beauty! Definitely go with the black grills! Also, the orange reflector sticks out like a sore thumb...I'd get the painted one's. Not to sure about the stripe yet?

Removing the stripes today. They belong on a grand sport corvette, not a BMW. At first I liked them, recently I've been rethinking it.

I vote for double slat black grill centers, but keep the chrome trim. It will accent your wheels and turn signal trim.

Car looks good!

Glad you said it first, I meant to but went with "if you have nothing nice to say...."

Got any more pictures?

Shop had a mishap during my fender roll session so I need my fender repainted. For the time being, using the stripes until I find a good shop.

Got it fixed and painted reflectors. I'm having second thoughts about the black grills, I think on a space grey car, the chrome grills make the car look elegant but sporty.

My chrome grills make me nausea every time I look at it!

Car looks so much better with those orange reflectors painted!
