Kidneys:Black or chrome.

[Victell]

I think you should run whatever you like better.

Try them both for a week. You'll end up liking one over the other.

For me, non-dark car with smoked headlights and blacked kidneys looks sick. One without the other... not so much.

Mine are a black plastic. Not covered I think I am gonna hold on to them so I have the option of switching back and forth as the mood changes.

no such thing unless you buy the corny kidney COVERS

I could've just told you mine came black, but I'm not going to.

I'll sell you my black kidneys, you couldn't even tell they were painted black.

the MHW black kidneys look just fine, and they aren't a cheesy cover either- it's a whole grille assembly. mine got broken when a stupid fucking old man backed into me, but I was able to remove the trim peices of the black kidney and put them on the grille part of the factory chrome kidneys.

my painted ones lasted about 3 months before they were pitted to hell with rock chips, and I sanded the crap out of the chrome before I painted them. maybe for you guys that live in areas with no gravel trucks, bugs, and sanding of roads in the winter it's fine, but around here..

I like the black because you seem to have a whole blacked out theme goin,, with the markers and all,, but with the stock rims on, I'd say chrome,, for some reason to me the black kidney clashes with the silver rims... If you end up doin black with a polished lip for rims, go to black :) just my .02

Im wrestling with the same debate as wel speak. Ive got full euro trim and a flat black front is lip as well as full factory shadowline as its a 318is. Im thinking of picking up another set of chromes that need refinishing anyways. Then I wont fuck up my nice low milage chromes and can alternate as I wish. What paint do you guys recomend?

I think chrome looks good on your car Fielding.
