Black grilles. No other chrome on the car apart from exhaust tips.
Chrome belongs on the luxury model. Black grilled suit any colour in my opinion. Your choice though. |

I've changed them on my f36, my wife hasn't even noticed. Or the boot spoiler!
After they arrived but before I fitted them I thought I'd made a mistake in buying them. Very happy with them after I fitted them though, I think they look great on a black car... |

I had a similar thought process when doing my grilles, car is BSM as well. The problem i had was that the gloss grilles I had seen didn't look just right, better than chrome however. The all matt ones didn't appeal because others had had issues with them 'flaking' So I came up with this:
Bought a cheap pair of matt grilles and swapped out the matt slat inserts for the black ones that came with the car. Maybe not every bodies cup of tea, but for me it works

Did think about all black on my BSM car and did like the stealthy looking shits folks put up.
Stuck with chrome simply because they stand out more and sort of link the headlights Did go for the double slat versions on mine though. |

i had the same dilemma,
originally i was happy with the chrome for the contrast... but after thinking on it for a while, i think the black really modernises the look. so i took the plunge and got a set of oem gloss black grilles. they go really well with the 442M's, love them now before and after pics

Chrome. Class, rather than 'try hard'.
