M340 Shadowline "design" vs Extended shadowline "trim"

Hi all,
Tried search, but failed.

What is the difference between the $850 design option vs $300 trim option?

It looks like the design option includes the trim option, but not sure what else it includes.

TIA

The extra money gets you the dynamic cornering headlights. Nice if you live in rural areas with lots of dark turns, otherwise skip it.

The $850, at least in the US, gets you the shadowline adaptive headlights, painted brakes in Red or Blue, shadowline grille, black exhaust tips, and the rear spoiler is black instead of body color.
The $300 will get you the grille and exhaust tips.

Oh and more about the spoiler lip. I expected mine to be gloss or jet black, but it appears to be Black Sapphire Metallic. Not what I expected but the contrast looks good.

Follow-up question: in the config, selecting the $850 package makes the calipers red, which you can't change later on in the configurator.

You're stating that, when I go to order, I can swap the calipers back to the blue? Here I was thinking I was going to have to get the shadowline trim option to keep the blue calipers.

I guess it depends which model you are getting, I was able to pick between the two on my 330e, but I believe the M340 makes you get the red brakes with shadowline package. It sucks because the only way to get blue brakes and black grille is extended shadowline but then you don't get the cornering headlights. For the 330e it only gives you blue brakes with dynamic handling, then lets you choose red or blue if you add shadowline package.
