Pics of MCS with M7 Upper Middle Lower Grills

So I finally took some pics of my M7 Grill install if anyone is interested. I did add the chrome piece to the top of the upper grill because I thought it just didn't look right going from the grill to the hood (with some slight modifications of course). Anyway, I know most of you like the M7 grills in black but I thought this install in silver looks pretty damn good

Those shots give a great view of the grilles. It really gives a good sense of the overall look. I'm partial to the silver as well and think that the chrome surround is a nice touch.

I wonder if the silver would be too light for LY?

Looks great!

I really like the M7 grilles... hoping to get a set in black eventually.

I prefer the clean lines without the chrome surround, but on your car it seems to fit

I don't think it would be too light, but my personal opinion would be that black would be awesome :D
