De-chroming is not an option here in the US.
Cars with the US sports package (suspension, AS, ARS) get the non-shinny black trim. Cars without the sports package get chrome. Unfortunately, that's our only choice.

The shiny shadow looks sooooo good on a black car!! I would never choose it on any other color but on black it looks sick!!
Yesterday I saw a 520i with the dull black instead of the chrome.. It looked so cheap. Doesn't the 520i get chrome??? The car looked like the cheapest version with the small wheels and cloth on the seats.

But that isn't what you need to call cheap. It is nice that you can afford an extra ?6K or ?8K, glad that you can but the disrespect I can do without.

530E60NL walked right into that one 
never put down a particular model/colour combo whatever, on a site like this.....someone will always catch you out. Each to their own I say, I am the biggest fraud my cars spec says > ?30k but because I bought ex-demo actually paid lot less than that...i'm tight, i admit it 
you are totally correct ?30K is not cheap in anyones eyes....well except maybe Bill Gates or the Sultan of Brunei. anyway welcome to the site...get registered
