It looks alright. Space gray helps to make it not look weird. Tried titanium outside and black inserts?

No, this titanium comes from BMW with chrome outside. I just took the inside and mixed it with black performance outside.

Love the innovation.....but it's. It for me really. All M Performance looks better. Got mine on order to replace my all titanium M50D one.

I don't like it much. Looks a bit out of place for me. Perhaps it'll look better in person.

Yes the mix dose not look right.

I think the Titanium grills dose make the front of the X5/X6 pop. I have the always love those grills on past X5s, makes them special and separate them form the other BMW line up.
