I have a 550i in Dark Graphite and changed out the grills to the 535 version. The slat sides are black instead of silver.

Here is a before and after shot

I have arctic white M sport and the black sport grills are wicked sexy set against tinted windows also. On a dark colour I like the glint of 'steel' grilles and would opt for factory 550 grill. IMHO
