Blacked Out Kidneys: Why?

[e30 gangsta]

I personally love the black kidneys on my alpine. But you have to have everything else smoked too and the euro trim. Plus the deep black that all new parts show, is way better than some flat spray paint.

And wow the car looks horrible without wheels on lol.

black kidneys means your a douche
plus you cant even tell its a bmw any more

chrome kidneys means your classy

like Ron Burgundy always says

Chrome, blacked out -- they both look great. If you can't tell an e30 because the grill is blacked out you better have your eyes checked. Mine's blacked out. My PO had some shitty paint job on the grill that was peeling, and by the time I got the paint off the only way to go was to paint again, or buy new kidneys. Which I still may do. Meanwhile, a little high temp primer, high temp flat black, and bam...looks good with my alpine paint. It's all about what you like. Not what some other guy likes.

Same reason shadowline trim is better chrome=gay.

I think being "classy" also means knowing the difference between "your" and "you're". YOU'RE not really helping your argument.

I like both chrome and blacked out kidneys. Just depends on the car.

Black...but it all depends on the car. My cars faded to crap, scratched, and dented....nice chrome just makes the car look that much worse.

I don't see why not. If modded properly, black is the only color grill that will flow with the rest of the car.

looks custom through foglight holes

[WhyNot]

if you black out only the left one it means your gay
but if you black out the right one it means your gay but havent come out yet.
but what does it mean if you black out only the bottom half?
or only the top half?

In what way?!? Chrome kidneys look great with polished wheels. The whole thing is just an opinion.

I nearly peed my pants when I saw this. lol!

because there is no chrome on a blackout trim 318is. those chrome kidneys stuck out like two bigass silver crowns on your two big front teeth.

just didnt seem right, so piece of trim is now black.
