    Yes silver matches the wheels and front side vent.👍 I have black car and hence went with black roof rails as silver did not look right in my opinion. I also have 22 inch silver wheels plus my side vent is also black so am thinking black strips???

    Tough choice as I think both will work, depends how flamboyant you are feeling, Wink

    I previously had a D4 HSE Lux in black with some extra silver trims: roof rails, mirror covers and rear step / boot area and that gave the car more 'prestigious look' (comments from a mates wife) and on that car I think the all black would have been too much.

    With the D5 it has a few more curves and so can carry the contrasting straight lines of the trims in either finish (OMG I am sounding like those marketing types that I said I could never relate to Rolling with laughter )

    Either way you are getting a great car Thumbs Up

    Tell me about it being a tough choice. I initially thought they looked "out of Place" being so low down compared too the D4 which are mid way up the door until Scrumps kindly posted a pic of his and made me change my mind. Thumbs Up
    Yes I agree black on black is too much especially the wheels, hence glad I have 22 s in silver as needs to break car up. Hmmm I did look at silver roof rails on black car bit did not suit it so went for black rails instead plus thinking keep the door protectors black also as front vents are black. Plus front windows are getting a slightly darker tint on them too. God I hate all this colour coordination stuff aaaarrrrrggghhhhhh Big Cry Big Cry Big Cry

    Nice Thumbs Up

    One picture it's missing the wheel center caps. The other pictures the center caps are fitted. Why the difference?

    Top photo is when it comes off the transporter complete with the paper and plastic wrappings, awaiting it's PDI, hence no centre caps. The 2nd pic with caps is when it's been fully checked over by the garage awaiting customer pick up plus as you can see the mud flaps have been fitted and the side door protectors. It's possible that maybe the hub torque settings are also checked hence the omission of the centre caps?? Not sure too be honest but they will check wheel nuts and tyre pressures plus cars properly buffed and polished
