    Stunning! The contrast over the green grass just highlights the curves of those two beauties.

    Nice. Thats Ed in the dark shirt, talking with Mike in the blue shirt. Mikes Silver car is for sale. It belonged to his father who passed away. He and his father had joined us for the big meet at The Quail.

    Most anything would look good compared with that black whale under the tent in the background.

    Silver Grill vs. Factory Grill really shows improvement in looks....seems like the car develops a smile and smarter up to date look....was not that acquired from some dealer?

    You should be able to order the grills from any BMW parts counter, and then you can have them painted by any shop. Norcal and I had Dana at Peter Pan have them painted by his 3rd party paint shop. They're done in the same silver that the new BMW grills are painted.

    It's really a good move on the darker cars (black and blue). I don't think it'd work on the others.

    The first time they painted mine, they chipped quite a bit. I had them redo it, and they added some flexible agent, as used on bumpers... so far so good! I think however, the silver "Face" looks more retro, accenting the "twin kidneys" as on the 507.
