Chrome or Black Kidneys.

[Garageaholic]

But either way, I'm a fan of the smoked/black look. I could never go back to clear lights and a chrome kidney..

I'm with you on that 100%

I like the chrome on a black car.

Contrast FTW!

[Mastrcruse]

I really like the black on my zinno. But other colors def. look better with chrome.

Chrome, for God's sakes please stop this horrible fad of black ones.

[delatlanta1281]

hmmm ok. I guess you're over black then?

[JasonC]

You could allways keep a extra chrome or black kidneys around, incase you get bored of one or the other.

aren't fads things that come and go over short periods of time? I'm pretty sure people have been blacking out the kidneys on BMWs long before the E30 even existed..

[Fanzotti]

^Word. I like black mostly but it depends on the color of the car. Anyone have a shot of the barbed wire ones?? I gots to see that!

Well, here's mine both ways:

Chrome with clear lights:


Blacked out with smoked smileys (minus the eyebrows, and before the French Fogs and Euro grills):

<- also w/ nando on front end treatments..

self quote:

Love the smoked/dark grill area. Reminds me of certain 60’s chargers or camaros. Looks like the front grill area is some sort of dark mouth ready to consume air and small children. Also provides great, simple contrast with monochrome theme.
