Black Kidney Grilles
Just received my 2013 Space Gray/Oyster X3 on Friday. I love it so far but was thinking of replacing the existing silver kidney grilles with black ones. Has anyone installed these and what's your opinion on the looks?

I have a 2012 x3 with the m- package titanium silver and I changed mine out and really like the look. Side trim is black and the grilles lower on the car are black.

I have a space gray M3 with gloss black grills and I love the look. I loved it so much that the day I got my Deep Sea Blue X3 I changed out the grills to the gloss black ones. It's more noticeable and better looking on the lighter colors like Space Gray.

Recently took delivery of my 2013 2l X3 diesel, space grey colour with a silver grille (as supplied by factory & not specifically ordered). Dealer says the 3l models usually come with silver grilles & the 2l models all have black grilles.
I guess the factory must have run out of black grilles when they assembled my car. Not to worry - I prefer silver! |

I painted mine from silver to black. It took all of a 3 hours including drying time.
