Standard or Black exterior mirrors on Tanzanite II M440i

I made my order with coloured mirros, but to say the truth I totally forgot about this option when I made the order and now I´ve seen this option in the configurator I´m doubting whether to order them or just leave the order as it is and later on paint them if I think they would be better in black (the other way around would be more expensive for sure)

The black option costs 130 € more than the standard ones.
Are the standard ones half black, half coloured? I also can´t see them that well in the configurator

My car also has extended black shadowline ext elements as well as darkend shadowline front lights

Any input will be appreciated

I like the cerium mirrors. Mine is Black and left them Gray. It's a nice contrast

Yes, that sounds nice

In the end I´m going to leave them in Tanzanite, as half of the mirrors are black I think it will be enough contrast

Thanks for answering!

MilesHi ,

I have a '20 M340 in Tanzanite. It came with Cerium gray exterior items, including mirror caps (the 2/3 of the mirrors). That was fine for a while, but I eventually, changed all (including mirror caps) to gloss black

While the gray made an interesting contrast with Tanzanite, really like the look with the gloss black

It really is each ones own like

Hope that helps

Just one person's opinion, but go with the body color, unless cerium is an option. For me, the shadowline trim looks very cheap in person.
