Grill surround color matched to car....

chenry · 07-16-2020, 05:14 PM

Have been curious what this would look like....(not looking to switch my gloss black surround with cerium center - just idle curiosity)

I stumbled on this on IG and thought I would share.

Hmmm....not bad at all.

I’ve also wondered what it would look like when color matched. More pics by him would’ve been nice

definitely doesn’t look bad to me.

Yeah I know I agree but that's all I could find. When I mentioned in one of my posts "I'm wondering what it would like if someone color matched their grill surround".....he replied with "I did that." Sooooo....I went to his IG and this is all I could find

I've really been wanting to change the black surrounds on mine to liquid black / black chrome (just the outlines, not the inner area of the grill) . I think it'll break up the all black up front just enough to stand out without too much contrast.

I wanted to color match my grill surrounding after seeing it on a grey M2 that was one of the featured build threads a few weeks ago. Looks good.
