..it's chrome surround and painted silver slats though, not all chrome.
I've got a pair of chrome with black slats going spare if you want to have a go at spraying the slats?

You can order these Titanium grilles from your dealer.

Part No: 51137181547-548

They are (if I remember correctly) about £76.00 each including VAT.

I ordered them and had the dealer fit them when I bought the car, hope this helps :)

I hadn't even had my car a week and the other half present me with a 'present'....new grills for the car because he doesn't like the whole silver ones. I'm still on the fence about it........with silver mirror caps and silver grill it suits it.

Not that most people actually know that only the 35i and 35is have this grill but I do fancy making the front end looking a bit more 'common' so people think it's just a 18 or 20 and putting the chrome and black grills on.

This is what's available in chrism and silver

Hi Paul, will do. If this bloody weather would actually stop being crap here I might get a chance to possibly get them off or have a good look at what it would look like instead of in a computerised version. From Falkirk you say.....home of that famous wheel :) always seem to drive through but never stop.
