All-black M340i kidney grill option?

I've seen picks with the new bronze or whatever you want to call it color grilles. Anyone know if black will be an option. Maybe a shadow line package....

More than likely. At least the Z4 M40i also has the similar kidney available in black.

Doesn’t look bad at all in all black. Is than an aftermarket product or available from BMW as an option ?

I think on the z4 its an option.

For the 3 series, no one knows. I'd assume there will either be an after market option, or it will be bundled into some sort of black trim package.

In the UK, they actually have an option to get black mirror caps instead of the cerium gray ones.

And in the US for the m850 they actually have a package (premium individual composition package) that turns your black window trim and cerium grill back to normal chrome , and cerium gray mirrors back to body color among other things. I would love a package like that on the m340

Bmw has offered black grills port installed for a while now, would be a surprise if they did not offer one for the M340

We will have an all black option for the M340i including the front grilles, mirror caps and trunk emblems.

Good to know. The bar is not set very high though - all we need is some depth in the grill and not flat plastic :-)

All the G20 grilles are flat because of the active shutters. I don't think you'll get around that unless you just install conventional grilles. I'm betting third party grilles that remove the shutters will become kind of a thing. Or maybe modules/tunes that will permanently keep the grilles open when the car is on.
