Chrome/black grills...

The other day I saw an X3 with chrome ring grills but with flat black slats. Does anyone have a set of these? I Have the chrome/silver ones but was curious what the others would look like...

Could anyone post a pic if you have them, and let me know if you might be willing to part with them? I'd like to see how they look on my X...

Thanks in advance!

I have them on mine but don't have a picture of them. My car has the satin roof rails so the grilles complement them nicely. I bought them from BMW a long time ago. They were offered from the factory on US N20 cars for a short period of time before they went back to the chrome ring with silver slat grilles which look horrible IMO.

Mine is black but I had the chrome with flat black slats on mine, replaced them with the performance version. Pictures attached. If you want them PM me, I'll sell them to you cheap. As far as I know I didn't break anything on them when I took them out.

Thanks for the offer, but I'm going to hold off for now. I do think I like the look, but I decided to just plastidip one of mine to see what it'll look like. If I do like the look, then I'll get in touch and take those off your hands..

Can you send me a link to the ones you have now. I have a matte black grill but it kind of looks cheapy.

Mine wouldn't work on yours, you have the updated version of the grilles. You can see the fatter lip on the outside edges of them.
