well the 335 has silver/grey ones... 328 has black ones... they really stick out on a black 335... and i like the clean look

doba_s · 01-08-2008, 11:01 AM

here is stock grey/silver grill before I installed black grilles

and here is stock black grill (also upgraded my intercooler)

I think you should leave that piece ( it will protect your intercooler )

JE92i · 01-09-2008, 01:15 PM

where did you guys get the lower mesh grills and how much? i'm thinking that i might replace the sides but leave the front open, if they dont cost too much.

XYR03 · 01-11-2008, 04:14 PM

PM me if u are giving away/selling ur silver grills. I kinda like them lol I havea 328i

JE92i · 01-12-2008, 12:17 PM

jpsimon · 01-12-2008, 01:09 PM

I really like that middle section taken out.

OverDrive · 01-12-2008, 01:24 PM

this stuff is there for a reason and the reason is to block any object (such as leaves) to go into the vents and block the vents. so i woudn't take them off if i were you.

damn I would have traded you before I painted mine.

funny how you always want what you dont have.

and im all for originality, but unless you have a huge aftermarket intercooler sticking out of the bumper and the necessary engine work to warrant said intercooler, taking the grilled out just looks cheap and unfinished.
