Fitted the shadowline trim on the car yesterday with help from Niall (topazman). I think it looks much nicer than the chrome that used to be there.What do you think?
@Niall...thanks for giving up your afternoon to help! It's not a one man job

No problem Richie nice to be doing some modding on a nice sunny day even though my neighbours think I'm mad. At least now we can do the next one in record time now

No not changing mine Richie as I like the look of the chrome with the Topaz Blue, but you never know somebody else might need a dig out at some stage

Good job lads. The chrome works better on some cars than other IMO and yours looks very good now, Rich.
I guess what i'm saying is that I'm happy enough with my chrome set! Tis best that they don't all look the same anyway!!

"Once you've had black, you won't go back" they say... and I changed my 518 for shadowline and am deffo a fan since then. But leave the grill chrome. Black grills look good on Audis etc, but the chrome kidneys look good on the Bms imo.
