M8CKN Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 Opinions please. Would it look chavvy or good? All the other trim on the car is gloss black except the grill .Would it suit a black grill to match the mirrors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 Chavvy. Leave it as it is. In my view, the black grille is just OTT no matter what model and I include the M3/4 in that. The car looks fabulous and a black grille will just bring it down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 I quite like the black grille on some models, but on the 3 I think the shiny one enhances the design flow of the front end from headlights into grille. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M8CKN Posted December 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 Just found this image and it looks like someone has nicked the grill! I thought it'd look a lot better than it does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 That's what I mean. It just doesn't work. I don't think it works on any BMW and I always see a grille change as being a last resort if a brand introduces a model with a horrendous grille (for example, the mesh grille for Jaguars as opposed to the 'teeth' grille). I see far too many chavs driving BMW's with black grilles to want to change to that even if I thought it looked better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 I thought it would look ok. That pic proves otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M8CKN Posted December 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 I think the lack of lower fog lights don't help the black look either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
