Any suggestions on where to buy them from? Also, anyone have picture of them on silver e36's? I've got an arctic silver 318i that is bone stock cosmetically, looking for a subtle touch, think blackouts are a good idea? I've been looking at ones with a matte black finish for around 60$ Sound alright?
Happy holidays

I like black grilles on lighter colors; and as stated above, get one off ebay; much cheaper and it looks the same.
Here's a pic of my car with one ... cost me a whopping 25 dollars or something.

no problem, saving money is a critical department when dealing with our bmw's
cuz your gonna need that $ for something else aha:rolleyes
of course you could just paint your stock ones like i did(free), but i will prolly eventually buy the one that slocars got ^
looks like this, might be the grill just for 92's not sure? tiny bit different

Well I thought about painting them but I figured I'd like to keep the stock ones in case I ever wanted to switch back

I bought mine from DDM Tuning for $30 + Shipping.

I did mine in carbon wrap. Some of the only ones that I've ever seen so I saved money, they will never get rock chips and I can take it off if I want to sell the car with stock grills. Plus I have a unique part. :D

You should send me your stock ones when you get the new ones ;) I'd offer to trade my black ones, but they're not shaped right...
