Gloss black for me too.

IMHO they do nothing for a black car! Tried them on my old e60 and thought they made it look cheap and tacky.....
I'd leave them standard
I think if they are painted properly in gloss black then you would be safe, looking at the 2 pictures I feel the chrome grills actually date the front end of car. If the grills were to be painted in matte black for instance then yes they would look horrendous. After all BMW did bring out the "BMW Performance" range of black grills for some models like E92 and they looked very well imo. I think with the car being black and grills being black it will turn out very well. If it was another color say blue, red etc it may not look so good.

I put theses on the F10 when I had it, I loved them but the car was white.

But as e60 Dave said they don't have the same effect on a black car. I'd prob keep it the way it is, its too good to touch....
I'd leave the chrome grilles on
Only thing that really matters is what you like. It's worth giving the black a try anyway. You can always go back to standard very easily.
I'd prioritise your reg plate first!
I agree with Cab, the originals date the car a bit, but then black looks a bit ganster...Ive had the same issue with my E39 grilles and cant bring myself to put back on the chrome even though Im not overly pleased with the black either (matte)...that said, if I got gloss black and detailed the car it would be a lot better.
Catch 22, but I think the black is slightly better...but the changing back and forth isnt a killer job!
