I'm against the chrome. I prefer shadow on all colors. I always notice the chrome on cars like the Infinity. Shadowline is best, IMO.

The dealer can install Shadowline if we want
Does anyone know if the opposite is possible...installing chrome on the sport package? I plan on ordering a titanium gray II 530i with sport package. Here are pics of Rodybmw and doctor diesel's cars for comparison. I really like the chrome, it emphasizes the roofline nicely without adding too much bling. I know it's pretty obvious at this point but I voted for chrome.

I have a black car and went for chrome. I just like it more.
But there is nothing wrong with the shadowline! Looks good and sporty.

I went for the high gloss shadow line trim this time after having the matt black version before. I saw it on a showroom model and fell in love with it
