M Sport colour kidney grills

Want to know what people think about the M Sport coloured slats for the kidney grills. I can't make up my mind whether these look good........or just tacky. Just to confirm they will be going on an M Sport model in M Sport estoril blue!

They look naff, which is pretty much the general consensus on other threads asking the same recently. But ETTO.

I put them on mine and was not sure then decided i was going to take them off, but virtually every one said they looked great and thought they were stock .... without me asking or pointing them out, so on they stay.

I have these, I am about to remove the coloured one though and go for the all black look. Ordered them to see what they look like but over time I just want the all black look back. I still think the dual slat though looks way better than the stock singles.

Got them for £35 so wanted to give them a try for that price, ordered a set of all blacks and will get them on the car asap. Dual slat is staying though, looks so much better in my eyes.

Coloured ones just look like someone has used some crayons.
