Matt Black

[MattyEMD]

Hey Guys

Picked up my E90 320d on Tuesday and loving it.

some little cosmetic mods I'm doing to enhance it...IMO.

so this is the begining pic





then its Lamex rear reverse lights...







polished the exhaust tip too as i cant stand the brown finish.

blacked out the "320d" badge too





then it was the grill..





thinking of going with the full black logos on bonnet and boot

and then rims black

You going to matt black it? Vinyl or dip?

320d - - good car that. Enjoy!

normal


black & white


full black

I opened the thread and thought you had done the whole car Matt black, scrolled down and the before pic looks great. Like the mods you have done so far. I would go with the black & white badges and not the full black.

Looking good! :thumbs:

I prefer option 3 for the badges... (Where are you getting these from?)

I had the all blacked out badge, looks pretty cool... but just not sure on a black car...

You should be able to get those badges from burgy:thumbs:

looks tit on the yellow,agreed the black may be to much on black

Nice subtle upgrades, compliments the car. Thinking the black and white badges will work on your car:thumbs:

awesome car MattyEMD!! I have one but with the 18's
the mods make it look even better.
I would go with black and white badges and not all black

Questions
where can I get the black lamex?
what did you use to matt the grille?
What you use to polish the exhaust? ,I also hate the brown look of mine
