Matte Black Grills Installed! - BMW 1 Series Coupe Forum / 1 Series Convertible Forum (1M / tii / 135i / 128i / Coupe / Cabrio / Hatchback) (BMW E82 E88 128i 130i 135i)

I just installed the **********s matte black grills and i love them!
Theyre high quality matte black plastic with a little bit of a sheen to them. they absorb more light than the shadowline kidneys so they're more easily noticable too.
fitment was perfect and once i got the OEM chrome grills out (talk about a pain in the ass) the new ones snaped right into place with ease.
**********s was great and shipping was fast as shit, i got the grills within 4 days

Now for the pics!

I've seen it on a 335i before and its hot hot hot.. I kinda just used the black frame for my black 135i but kept the chrome to be a bit different hehe..

Looks good! I like the painted outer on Alpine White, we did this for a few E92s and it came out well.
