AN E30 Fan 1 Report post Posted February 8, 2010 (edited) Welcome mate I suggest for mods black the kidney grill, get some nicer wheels for it (Jono aka Zenetti has some nice deep dish black 16 or 17's that would suit this car), change the tail lights to stock ones and then red them and some tints but not too dark, then your done! and M50B25 swap Edited February 8, 2010 by AJ-E30 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antil33t 90 Report post Posted February 8, 2010 Don't black the kidney grill out. I think it looks wrong on darker coloured cars.... Everything Else... what he said Oh, Welcome to Bimmersport. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

khairul23 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2010 I am with the suggestion to keep the grill as is. Personally I think you're hiding the bimmer's main identity when you black out the grill. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_ethrty-Andy_ 2132 Report post Posted February 8, 2010 (edited) (edit: click to see bigger) Black grill club up in here! (old photo, car now with Mtech2) true it is a BMW icon the double kidneys but at the same time the car looks a lot cleaner without it. i would rock a black grill on a black car or a white car, anything else needs the chrome no questions asked Edited February 8, 2010 by ethrty320 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frkshow 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2010 I'm nt a fan off the black grill personal but the car does hv tints but they arnt dark enough gonna tint over them. Yea mags are on the top off the list ATM. Any ideas guys? Oh and I just picked up a pair off eyelids for 60$ brand new. I was thinkn more off a sr20det swap as I no quite a few people that play around with them but I wanna keep in bema all the way. But thanks for your input guys much appreciated.
