Placing my X6 35i order in a few day...

I will be placing my order for a 2010 X6 35i and I was wondering about the kidney grille. Does anyone know if it will be aluminum or black. From what I understand the Sport Package will be black but without the package will it still be black. I know the trim around the window will be chrome without the package. I plan on Jet Black for the exterior and Oyster interior. I think the black would look alot better without the black grille. A black grille doesnt compliment the running boards or the chrome window trim in my opinion.

I don't think you have anything to worry about. The black paint swirl marks will be more obvious than the kidney grills within a few months.

Not trying to be funny. But black only looks good the day you buy the car and then its downhill from there.

I thought about how black tends to look bad after a year or so but the only other color I could see myself in is the Alpine white...I wish the Melbourne Red was available on all the X6 models and not just the X6M.
