Ti vs. Glossy Black Kidneys on Sterling Gray

dansingh · 09-06-2011, 05:48 PM

Just switched out the kidney grilles and still deciding which one I like better. What do you think?

Gosh, I guess I'm going to go against the grain:

I'm voting titanium.

I think if you go black, you should black out the whole front (ie, replace the two front grills with black or paint them). The progression of sliver-silver-silver looks good, but the silver-silver-black brings on some dissonance. (actually, I think I'd vote for b-b-b over s-s-s).

I'm a girl, so of course I'm not going to vote for 'making my grill manly' at the expense of aesthetics.
