Question about my car and trim

I have an LCI E90 328xi non-sport package, but I do have 17" style 285 wheels and the car was purchased new. Why don't I have chrome window trim? (I am definitely NOT lementing this fact, however!!!) I thought you had to have ZSP to have black (shadowline) trim??? Am I missing something?

I thought chrome window trim is only standard on 335i or 330i and wasn't available in all package for 325i or 328i.

Every 328 I've seen LCI included has black window trim...

Correct. But if you look closely, the 328i w/o Sports Package have the matte black window trim, the 328i w/ Sports Package have the high gloss black shadowline trim.

That's exactly right.

yeah, guys...sorry. I was under the erroneous assumption that all LCI non-ZSP E90s had chrome window trim and that upgrading to the sport pack gave you the black trim. a quick trip to bmwusa and build function quickly clarified. moreover, my car doesn't have shadowline trim, only matte black trim. so at least I learned something!

thanks for your input and the clarification! (It does strike me as odd that the 335 would have what I would consider less desireable trim option unless you get ZSP...but I guess that that is just my opinion and some like chrome...ew. Then again, I would never buy a 335 without either sport or M sport pack...so it is a moot point). Toodles.
