Matte black on a black car gives it a bit of contrast which is always nice to have. Some people think it looks "unfinished" because of the matte finish, but when I feel like the gloss black grilles on a black car makes it look like something is missing.

On my e92, the torx screws are what aligns my bumper, grilles and the hood in harmony. Without one of them, a gap will appear or a part of the bumper will stick out. I would go to the dealership and pay $1 or something for one asap.
Thanks man, will do. Doubt I can find this kind of screw at local hardware store?
