So I just had a call from the dealer

Regarding the trim.

He begins by saying that the 'silver chrome' trim I wanted was unavailable. And I am thinking uh oh bubble boy here we come...then he continues and says that I will have to settle for shadowline chrome.

Ahh the exterior trim is what he is on about. Relieved I said that is fine I am not too fussed. But then I anxiously asked if the brushed aluminium INTERIOR trim was still OK. He said that it definitely was.

However my car hasnt gone into the build request stage yet, so he I am not counting my eggs (no pun intended) yet.

I thought shadowline was the default and chrome trim was never an option on the M sports.

Yes you are right Sydneysider. Anything with the M-pack gets the shadowline standard. I just preferred the silver chrome trim, esp on black as it highlights the car better (in my opinion).

Smarm: let us know how you go

yeah i would have picked it too initially but you'd like the shadowline for the fact it blends into the car colour.
