    Leave the kidneys chrome, paint your bumper trim. It will make more of an aesthetic difference.

        And don't forget to paint those rings around the lights as well. I repainted all mine and I
        think it looks great. It's all personal preference.

        Here is mine all blacked out including the trim around the lights.


        I think it looks great both ways. (see sig)

          If you want your car to look like a VW then go with black kidneys. This isn't a good thing.

          If you want your car to look like a BMW then go with chrome kidneys.

                  Painted the trim, valance and bumper tucked the front. Looks great! I'll post pics later.
