IND painted Grilles- M stripes?
I'm a bit torn here. If I had black paint and blacked out theme, then the M-stripes would be a sure thing IMO. The pic that IND has showing the M-stripes on a black M5 are what sold me on the idea in the first place. And I was sure I would opt for them when I ordered my grilles for my Space Gray/Black 343's M5...
But now after seeing MY M5 in person and pics...and after the tints... I'm kind of thinking the M-stripes might take away from the Black & Gray theme I have going. The all black grilles could be a bit cleaner and meaner looking without the M-stripes...??.? Another option would be to get the M-stripes but have them tinted so they're not so 'bright'. Spoke to Nate at IND about this and he thought it could be cool considering all my windows are tinted. I've attached a pic of my car. What would you do?

Agree with skipping the M stripes. Less is more.

Wow... The results are Overwhelmingly slanted towards All Black grilles. Kind of makes me want to do the stripes just to be different!!

Definitely no M stripes. I cringe when I see that on M's.

I think you've all changed my mind with the grilles. Worst case... I can add the stripes later via vinyl if I really want to.
