I like the gloss/shadowline look personally. You see a lot of people selling their matte black ones in the for sale section.

OK, do all US M3s from factory come with chrome grills, or is that package dependent? What is the grill from factory called - chrome?

What are my OEM options?

Black gloss
Black matte
CF

What about the black part between side mirror and body? Is that matte or gloss. I figure I should have the black parts matching.

What comes on the GTS? Matte or gloss?
