Does anyone knows which US model year and model the kidney grille is black in the center and chrome around it? If so any part number? I tried searching it's either all black, carbon fiber or all chrome.

Mine looks like that and it's a Canadian 06.

I guess I should check out the pre-LCI 528 or 530 then. My 07 E61 comes with all chrome.

Thanks guys

I'm still doing research. Not decided whether I want the all black or chrome/black grille.
