i added some eyelids and blackout grills...love the grills. thanks to james...i didnt paint the eyelids because it matches the flat black trimmings. what do you guys think???

ZuerstBMW · 09-14-2006, 02:40 AM

I think it looks great. You have great taste as always.

BMW_E90 · 09-14-2006, 02:41 AM

yea not bad

aapriadi · 09-14-2006, 02:43 AM

just my opinion long: i never like eyelids so you know what i'm gonna say next right

and i think cf grills would look best on your car; not that the current black grill isnt good but cf is perfect for your ride imo
your ride still looks hot as always though

ZuerstBMW · 09-14-2006, 02:45 AM

The good thing about both is you can change them out in minutes for a new look.

i never liked eyelids on bmws. i only put eyelids on my corolla because the stock headlamps were enormous.

I really am not a fan of the grills, but the eyelids look better on Euro lights!

John · 09-14-2006, 06:50 AM

grill = great longtran.
eyelids = questionable imo

neuronpetkowski · 09-14-2006, 07:01 AM

that vehicle would look impressive in front of anyone's garage...damn, what a sweet ride....

Have anybody seen CF grills?

Dankim10 · 09-14-2006, 09:51 AM

hmm...

eyelid

But I like your grill!

ksfrogman · 09-14-2006, 10:22 AM

Love the grilles. The black eyelids look like black eyebrows, which are not bad, but they make the car look a little Greek?

My biggest problem is that they cover up your cool clear headlight trim.

longtran · 09-14-2006, 10:30 AM

yea guys, i never expected to cover up my euros with eyelids either. i was test fitting the hamann lip with jbjwc's e90 and decided to throw the eyelids on his car. it didnt look bad so i added them on my car. its not bad, i can still remove them. thanks for all the kind words...

ALPINE6SPD · 09-14-2006, 10:31 AM

lose the eylids and the rest is hot

diesel007 · 09-14-2006, 10:50 AM

The grill is pimp. The other day Mini Puck pointed out that the inner slats are thicker then stock and I really think that adds a nice touch.

If you are going to keep the eyelids definitely paint them because even though they match the grill they brake up the lines between the hood and the headlight so the flow gets thrown off and it looks a bit unfinished (IMO).

I just got my chrome ones, but I've been so busy, I haven't had the time to put them on. I'm real curious to see how they'll look on the car.

Btw, I noticed these "thick" ones on the Z4 M, but on the M6 they are "thin."
