The car that my dad has order is a black sapphire, black dakota leather, with the silver trim. On the sports package in the UK they de-chrome the car. Otherwise with the SE you have the chrome (unless you pay for it to be taken off)

Which cost the following

?160-de-chrome
?270-high gloss shadowline

The high gloss shadowline is shiny, where the de-chome is matt finish. I think the prices are correct form what I can remember.

Are you saying you don't have the black or are you saying you don't have the chrome trim?

Your signature indicates you have the sport package so if you have black, all is well with the universe...

Shadowline trim looks much better.

I think they should make the chrome trim around the kidney grille match the body color, too.

I hate chrome.

I don't have sports package.. but I do have Jet Black... Shadow trim is only sports package... I prefer chrome trime better but you do lose the sports package...

My opinion is that chrome makes it better, something more to look at, plus splits the car up a little bit more on darker colours. I like it. Looks like alpina like it aswell (there cars are sporty).
