I also replaced the fender grilles with new black aftermarket replacements. Not sure how I feel about them, but they're of reasonable quality and they were way cheaper than the real deal. Maybe I'll get replacements....later.
I like that look. I mean all the other trim on the car is black.

Yes, I like it too. The fender grilles on mine were already black; one was painted and chipping, the other was either painted and not chipping or just black. Not sure which. The replacement parts aren't as glossy, and they appear just to be black molded plastic. They'll work, though, until I take care of other more important things.

Stock halo's with replacement white LED light source.

I like that it gives it the newer BMW look. The old coffee brown look was so dated.
