currently got an s3 saloon on order but haven't specced the black styling pack. Chrome accents do look classy and but the Black, well it's blacks and makes the car look menacing. Stuck between what to do and could use some help with some pictures. Thanks guys.
 
Personal choice, but I like the lighter cars with the black pack and darker cars without.

Happy new year

Probably one of the toughest choices. That very pic above made me stick with chrome but @jassyo06 has me almost regretting my choice every time I see his, However my order locked and Chrome it stays. I think whatever you choose, you'll always kinda wish you had gone the other way but I'm no longer bothered at all. Both look epic and you can't possibly go wrong!
Happy new year guys

A few examples for your viewing the pano-roof roof does emphasise the BSP

Sepang is probably the only colour that works equally well with either chrome or the BSP so I don't think you can go wrong. Consider it tho with other options like privacy and pano roof as Jassy says it contrasts well with the BSP. Also I like the chrome window trims with privacy glass for the contrast so depends on the overal look you're after.

Yeah, but if you like both then it's not so easy. It's like choosing a twin with different hair. Can't quite go back once you've been with chrome hair twin, wink at BSP hair twin and just change your mind. BSP hair twin will give you a slap. I guess there's always Vinyl (or in my example case, hair die) but I'm not sure how that will look.
The upside is both will look mega and suit the paint. Best advise, ask your best mate, and if he gets it wrong, you can give him a slap

I feel your pain !!

Just bought a Bianchi road bike..... but couldn't decide which colour I liked most.

Ended up taking the stock green and ordering a black one.

Probably doesn't help really

A good man can never have enough bikes. I change the tyres and minor components, and tell my Mrs I need them all. How else does she expect me to take over the world!

For me chrome, as it matches the mirrors. I think if you go black the car would look better with black mirrors as well.

Each to their own though!
 
I've seen Only x1 sepang S3 since ordering and that was only quick so I'm taking a punt on the colour based on pics. I can't believe it can look that different in different light!!! Cracking colour
Yeah it's a bit of chameleon,changing tone with the lighting,dull days leaves it looking purplish blue

I'm not meant to be picking up until March and your not helping grrrrrr lol
My dealer is either very good and not getting in touch because he doesn't want to tempt me in, or a fat fingered numpty that can't dial my number on his phone to tell me it's arrived so I can have a look.

For me it has to be black pack all the way.

The black pack gives a much more aggressive and modern look whereas I associate chrome more with lux models.

I don't like chrome on the window cappings either - for the same reason.

Chrome is the work of the devil lol :)

I will only tolerate it on the exhaust pipes :)

Thanks for your help guys. Chrome does look classy but I'm straying towards black. Both do look amazing. Going to see if my order has been locked in or not tomorrow. Have a build week of 3 so I think it might be too late. :(
 
its your car why do you need help picking what you want?
