335IS grill vs M black grills

spunk · 06-26-2014, 11:17 PM

what looks better black or black/chrome grill? I am leaning towards the black/chrome girl but wanted some input.

LEFT - 335IS Chrome/Black
RIGHT - M Black

Leave as is, run both! Hope that helps!

Lol I vote all black.

spunk · 06-26-2014, 11:26 PM

sjf430 · 06-27-2014, 12:42 AM

I say 335is.....but in saying that I like bling shit lol

1QuikWS6 · 06-27-2014, 02:55 AM

I'm also liking the M Black better

black

bluescoupe · 06-27-2014, 12:03 PM

matte black.

I changed mine as well.

steve_eclipse · 06-27-2014, 12:54 PM

I like the subtle chrome accents on the car........I'd keep the chrome.

Everyone changes theirs for the matte black, why be like everyone?

M Black looks better IMO

SMadd · 06-27-2014, 04:33 PM

Score one for 335is Chrome/Black... a little touch of bling goes a long long way..
Besides, everyone is running to install the Black grills... I like to run just a little outside the pack.

JS82 · 06-27-2014, 04:38 PM

All black!

Black_Jesus · 06-27-2014, 05:11 PM

i plastidipped my stock grilles black the other day. they look great!

If it's not obvious by now, this really comes down to personal taste. Myself? I rather like the chrome slats but blacked-out frame of the IS grilles. To me they still look blacked out, but with a little more interest to them.

E92 M Sport · 06-27-2014, 11:26 PM

Chrome/black.

kdbryce · 06-28-2014, 09:08 AM

all black although i'm not sure what makes them "m" grilles.

I never really liked the 335is grilles.

THIS. if they're all black, they'll absorb all the light hitting them and won't reflect anything back. I say 335is. They're subtle and classy. Are the all-black ones glossy? That could be good, too.

went from my IS grills to the Black performance ones. Go all black.
