Great choice. Like the fact you went for the High-Gloss Shadowline, it'll look great. Used to have it on my 3er and kind of miss it on mine now. What exterior colour did you go for?

A fine choice!

I just upgraded my chrome+matt black grills to full chrome grills and find it a huge improvement. Worth considering for your car if you're already going for the High-Gloss option. Shouldn't cost you more than 100 pounds fitted, or maybe the dealer will just do it for free - let's face it, you've just ordered a lot of kit there!

Either way, it'll look

I could try the dealer - trouble is this is a company car. So ordered direct from a central order point in UK. My dealer will service only, so doubt it
