Carbon Fiber or Black?
I have a Jet Black e92 and just ordered some carbon fiber grills from **********s. They are on the way and I am really not sure if they will look good or not. So I figured I would ask you guys. So when I get them on friday I will still be able to exchange them depending on how they look. Also I just wanted some more advice on mods. I am kind of a noob. BTW my car is a lease so not looking for anything huge. So far I smoked out my tail lights, but left the white line, put some painted reflectors, and I am about to do the carbon fiber grills. My next mods will probably be wrapping my interior trim in CF and possibly a m3 lip spoiler and oem aero lip?? Any suggestions, feel free to post pics. Thanks!

I have the Carbon Fiber Grills on my e90 and I love them. I wrapped my interior in CF. I'd look into CF pillars too if you're into the CF look.

For JB.....Gloss black window trim and gloss black grills. Or matte black grills and matte black window trim which is what I have. Look at more pictures with JB cars and see what you like more.

Thats the problem, I haven't seen any JB e92's with the CF grills but the gloss black grills look insane. Anyway I will be receiving them tomorrow so if I don't like them than I will exchange them. I was just curious these past couple of days.

I think the all black look is too common, I haven't really seen many people with the CF on Black.

That was exactly why I went with the CF grills, although it isn't completely original because i'm sure there are hundreds of people with them, compared to the black on black look, it is.

I have had hyperblack for a year and still find it unique as many are intrigue. starting a new mod for my front end and almost done which will use hyper black but did something different for kidney grill that's unique into 3d look and will look even better once my hyperblack comes in.
