Black X1's

I've got a black sapphire xdrive20d on order and just have a quick question.

Does the trim beneath the windows come as black as standard or chrome/silver? I've seen it's silver on most but on the configurator it shows as black for the one I've specced up. I thought it might be the exterior high gloss black shadow but that's not it so wondered if it's black as standard? I want it as black you see as opposed to silver. Seen jayeli's black one on here but that has silver. Any ideas?

Cheers

At least here in Portugal, you get the black trim as standard, except on the top models (28i and 23d) where you get chrome trims.

In all cases you can choose the shadow line trims (in glossy black in the window trims and several more places)

Ah - thank you, that's it. 23d's come with chrome 20d's black (just checked in the configurator). Thanks for the answer.

For those who order the 23d or 28i it is possible to eliminate the silver trim if you choose
the individual shadow line (gloss black trim around the windows).

I also think it is possible to get the silver grill (option 2DD??) even if you have not ordered the 23d or 28i alltough it is not mentioned as an option in the configurator. I have seen it mentioned in a few used X1 adds.

Only if you add it after you get the car. So you need to just order the part in your local BMW store and have it installed.

From March on there is also another option available, called "Chrome Line" (at least here in Germany). It includes the parts of the Shadow Line option plus the silver trim beneath the windows.

senwar, you're in luck, the chrome trim is now an option - check the UK configurator and call your dealer (your profile says Sheffield?)
