"removal of specific design trims - shadow line"

Do we have anyone here who ordered this option?
It must be a very rare car...
Photos of exhaust and mirrors welcome

I have deleted it but my car is black...so the spoiler and mirror caps are Black Sapphire Metallic instead of Jet Black, and my exhaust tips are chrome. In my opinion, more body colored panels just look classier. I even optioned a sunroof because I don't like carbon fiber exterior components. If only there was an option to paint it body color like the touring will offer

Also did deleted shadow line trim. Let me know if this is too dark to make out and I can snap a better one. I'll try and get one of the mirrors today.

Great! You were really thinking about details well ahead! I love the car!

But your car is manual and as I see manual comes without shadow line as standard.

I just checked the US configurator and the shadow line is free for the manual model.. in Europe they steal around 350€ for it from you...

It's a bit frustrating to see how much equipment comes for nothing or close the nothing in the usa, unlike eu market...

Sure more photos welcome. I love the car; also the 50 Jahre badges suit well this color.

So for the Base M3 (non competition) the cars come without it and you can ADD Shadowline for free. The opposite is true for the Competition models, the cars COME WITH shadow line and you can DELETE it.

Yes, I did for my portimao blue M3 xDrive.
Pica can be found in the PB blue thread posted mid March.

I also added the "Extended Shadow Line delete". Being that I have the carbon exterior package, only the black tail pipes will be changed to chrome…which IMO…looks one thousand times better.

I prefer the chrome tips on my black car, gives it a nice contrast.
