Added the matte black grill, (thanks nerweezy) and thanks e60 for the DIY! Definitely gets rid of the chrome pig snout look.

Aaaaah, much better look for your e60. Most people tell me the change in my grill color brought my car a more aggressive look.

Nice mod. Now you need to cover the yellow reflectors as your next mod. Get some Euro stickers.
Sorry for the dumb question, but what exactly are euro reflectors?

My Ride: I have an 05 545i. It's a manual with a few options. This is my first BMW but I don't know how I'll ever be able to switch to something else.
Nice job, I just did this myself and I agree, it really makes the car look more aggressive. Plus that chrome trim just looks tacky IMO
