A few weeks on and everytme i catch a glimpse of the front i realise how much they change the image of the car and make it seem that much more aggresive. Very happy with this slight mod!

My Ride: F11 520d Touring Imperial Blue, sports automatic, VDC, black leather sports seats, M Sport steering wheel, HiFi Professional, 18" 328 wheels, Xenon, PCD, electrical tow hitch etc...
E87 120dM -10, Titanium silver, xenon, PDC, Hifi, 18" wheels etc.
E87 120d M sport- 08, Le Mans blue, xenon, PDC, Hifi, 18" wheels etc.
Sold: BMW 525dT Deep sea blue, xenon, PDC, leather, Hifi, USB etc.
Why on earth would anyone want to downgrade their BMW? The low-end 5-series like 520d and 520i all come with the black grill. Six cylinder engines all have chrome grills.
As a comparison, owners of the 1-series with 4 cylinder engines and black grills sometimes "upgrade" to chrome grills
