First mod: kidney grill

Fresh330 · 04-21-2009, 10:29 PM

So I'm starting the modding process on my Black Sapphire 330xi. I got my tints on last weekend and having my trim vinyled this Sunday. I'm going for the blackout look.

Now looking at getting the matte kidney grill. I plan on buying from **********s. Anyone else use them? I'd like to see pics on Black Sapphire if anyone has that combo. I researched painting my existing grills but I rather dish out $70 for a set that won't chip.

Also, I really liked the carbon fiber grills. Curious to see what they'd look like on my car. Only thing holding me back is $200+ for replacement grills!!! Might as well use that $ for blacklines.

I know this topics been beaten to death but if anyone has some input and/or pics, it would be great appreciated.

I got a set of matte blacks for my JB E92 from **********s a few weeks ago. Great service, prompt shipment (received them in 5-6 days after ordering online), and they look and fit great!! Only $70 for a mean looking front end! Easy install too... just gotta paint those silver lower mesh grills now. Hopefully its sunny tomorrow

Another vendors that offer the grill cheaper? Seems like MB is the place to go.
