i need some input

tbgolfer86 · 09-02-2008, 08:08 PM

i just got the matte black window trim for my e90 and i have the matte black grille on the way. now, i have two options. i can either put everything on as is, or i can have them both painted metallic black instead. i have sparkling graphite metallic so i figure the two metallics will match. its just a thought but let me know what you guys think, ide like to hear

go matte on the trim and the grille inserts... but paint the 2 small pieces that go on top of the hood sparkling graphite.... it gives it a much more "m3 or e92" kind of grille look.

that sounds sick as hell. anyone have any pics of something like that? just the two grille pieces painted on an e90

someone probably has it.... but if you like the idea then i'd say just go for it your car will be more unique.
