How dark gray ao you plan on going? As long as it is a distinct color difference with the black, it should look good. I say try it out and if you don't like it, go back to stock

I changed mine out for the carbon fiber ones about a year back, and every time I looked at the car it jut looked wrong ~ I put the OEM's back.

I changed mine from OEM to Black and White... I know people say that the blue and white are true BMW, but I like the look - its something different, even just for a little while.

I had a large black auto decal left over from a project on a different car a couple years ago... I simply cut black quarter rounds to cover the blue portion of my BMW decal on all of my outside roundels (including the wheels). Black/white now... love it with the black badge on the back.
