Mine are chrome black (came stock as edition model) Lots of pics on the Facebook link below in the signature or https://www.facebook.com/gintaniAUS
There are lots of photos there. I believe getting rid of as much chrome gives a great result. On my own car every bit of chrome, including the headlight assembly has been removed.

Depends on what you are looking for, the effect on an AW or Jerez black might look a lot better with a matte finish, but some colours are going to look better swith a black chrome finish (glossy)
What colour is your M?

+1 for DaveDee and the M3 Edition stuff

i also recommend changing the side grilles from the normal chrome ones to the black chrome M3 Edition ones,

Mine is an AW also with M3 Edition black wheels

Here's some of mine. They are the genuine performance black grille's from BMW. You can get them direct from BMW dealerships or find them on ebay for a bit cheaper.
