My Ride: 2008 Alpine White 550i Sport, Cream Beige Interior, 6-Sp Manual - retired 9/2011
I had the black ones on my SS M5 and ended up removing them. It just looked like big, flared nostrils to me. I think if I had a black or dark blue ride, I'd have kept them.

My Ride: 2004 545i, Sport and Premium package, Titanium Silver with Black Dakota Leather interior
Bought matte black grilles from modbargains.com. My car is titanium silver. Me likey much better. I hated that chrome. Remove about 20-30 torx screws, remove radiator covers, remove grills easy with no scuffed knuckles. 30 minutes tops.
