Maybe this is a temporary fix.

But,
That's what I noticed too.

The car in IOMG exterior color looks fantastic. The suspension is a bit too low for my preferences but it's just a humble opinion. Thanks for sharing!

I personally love the stock 19/20" combo. Too bad they don't offer 20" stock all around.

My theory is that the car looks best in black, not because the grille "disappears", but because the lower trim is body color and the overall shape and stance improves significantly.

That green is sick and I'm jealous that you were able to get it detailed and coated my Obsessed Garage no less. Those rims look nice as well.

I concur w/ you - the black does look better in terms of both the grill and the lower trim. The stance and shape looks good in general.

Those photos are incredible. I agree. This makes the front end spectacular. I’m a fan.

I was going to say best looking G80 I've seen so far. Until I saw the black one. We are all coming to except the new grill (because we have to) but I still say the GTS race car grill would've looked much better. In BOTH colors. I mean, c'mon BMW.....You already had the molds :

Funny that they changed the name of the wheels from BBS FI-R to Titan 7 T-S5

The car looks gorgeous though and the photography is spot on!

From the second time I've seen the car and questioned if they were going to include that design on production models, I always wondered what it would look like with body-color paint replacing all of that black paint.

I figured it would def look lower and sub-sequentially sportier.

Rims are the cars shoes bro. Just like certain basic shoe types, they can NEVER get played out, especially if u dress well. I'm tastefully nodding my head if that drove past me in the street. 👌🏾

For the cost of 1 FI-R you can get a complete set of T-S5
