Trim on Deep Green e90

Hi guys, I have been searching high and low for this all over the web. First, I was wondering if anyone had any pics of a Deep Green 3 series with matte black trim? Second, I was wondering what people thought of how matte or gloss black trim would look on a Deep Green e90 to replace the chrome. I know Deep Green isn't the most popular color on this thread, so I don't want to hear about it. I had a 1970 Chevelle in pretty much the same color before this so I fell in love with the color. Thanks for reading this post guys.

No need to apologize... I love green cars too and wish it were offered more often and on more cars!

For yours I would suggest gloss over matte as the gloss looks more OEM and just a bit richer IMO.

But maybe post a photo of your car and you may get more input or someone may be able to do a Photoshop of both options...

Sorry for the not so great pic. Its the one I have of the car before I bought it and I am up at school without a camera. Car looks almost black from a lot of angles, which is another reason I like it. Thanks for replies, I guess my only reason for possibly getting matte black is to match the pillars between the front and rear windows.
