If I had an M, I would not ruin it with those. They look like some VTEC crap some kid puts on his civic.

To each his own though.

I enjoy the clean look of OEM grills.

I have the German colored ones and IMO I love the look of them on my car. Sorry for the quality but I just took a picture of it now. It comes with extras so you can always have room for error and reapply them. I have some of the German colors if anyone is interested in buying them...

Well it's my opinion so it shouldn't matter to you. If you like it, rock it!

If you have a heavily modified E92 M3 (or 335i) with brembo brakes, flush wheels, slammed on coilovers, OSS headlights, then you might be able to pull it off.

But if you have a rather stock looking 328i, then it just looks lame.

i think it looks fine on a modded m3 but i wouldnt put them on a non-m car. But im sure if creaminz put them on his car everyone would be dying to have them. thats they way this forum seem to work a lot of times. everyone is scared to do something until a real car modder does it and it looks good. Theres a difference between a car modder and parts swapper. \rant
