Re: WTB: Black Chrome Grill

Hi Sanjay, nope, original grills are Silver Chrome. Looking for Black Chrome specifically.
 
Re: WTB: Black Chrome Grill

mindfulness, are you talking about glossy black grills? See photos I posted below, the first photo is mattt black and the second photo is gloss black.

If this is what you are talking about:
=> and you are driving 06-08 E90, the rest of the bros here may be able to advise you.
=> your car is E90 LCI, then it is not available in the market yet. You can only get a matt black and spray over it.

Hi RSCT,
I always go to one shop only, which is Yew Lip.
I don't know, but I feel that for simple thing like grill, maybe other shop can do as good a job as well at a lower price. So I am also hoping some other bros here can recommend us one :)
 
Re: WTB: Black Chrome Grill

Bro,

You can always opt to tint the grille....it should produce that black chrome effect. Acupunch has a great DIY on wrapping the grill....u just need to use the tinted sticker instead of the matte black/cf sticker.

Initially i did it, but my tinted stickers were kinda scratched. I think they look very good though - unique.

Hope this helps.
 
Re: WTB: Black Chrome Grill

black grille no contrast if ur car is black especially.... black out the horizontal top part but leave the vertical grille chrome... i think its nicer that way

Re: WTB: Black Chrome Grill

Crazy day at work sorry for late reply bros.
C3PO, looks like the second pic but if the second pic is just black gloss paint, then it's not the one I am looking for.
I am already on matt black now. Specifically its like the advan rs rims black chrome finish if you know what i mean.
