How would I go about doing this to my black grills?

EndOfAnEra · 08-08-2012, 02:42 AM

I was thinking of going to the auto store and picking out some touch up paint to match the three ///M colors, any other suggestions? I know I haven't seen these grills for sale like this...

Just ordered my set! I think little touches like this are awesome...

I have a set of these on my car... Easily one of the most heavily commented things on the whole car.

If I had a choice to change I'd do this to a set of carbon fiber grills. That'd be a great look.

Think that would look good?

no not at all, doesn't matter to me

EndOfAnEra · 08-16-2012, 09:59 PM

Just put mine on 20 minutes ago!

ProfessionalPro · 08-18-2012, 01:49 AM

It might be a little much but have you considered led strips? They get used allot to add flare to bikes but I think the stripes would look pretty good at night if you found the right colors.

Nicname · 08-18-2012, 04:06 PM

here's mine.
Got 2 compliments so far but idk if I'll keep them for that long

MikeE92M3 · 08-20-2012, 07:27 PM
