Hi board members,
I was quoted by gary from bmw of newport recently for matte and glossy window trim and there was a huge price difference. I recently ordered the matte black grill from trinity and was wondering if glossy window trim would match it? Should I just get matte window trim? There is a 400 dollar price difference. Anybody have any pics of matte vs glossy?
Thanks for all your inputs!

I would save the money and go with the matte.
And then use the money you saved and buy other mods.

Well you can compared the M5 Glossy black trim to a e60 sport series. The sports package has matte black.
I would save the money and go with the matte.
