Not yet. We've seen people switching chrome for Shadowline though. I think you can have the trim painted silver or titanium colour but they would require quite a bit of preparation to make them amenable to paint.

For carbon fiber you can at least cover the B pillar pieces with either BMW's carbon fiber look pieces or source real CF pieces. I have seen those item on eBay and on bimmian.com.

I hope you aren't afraid of expense.

I did source this titanium frame before, really bloody expensive!
Carbon fibre at pillars seem to be cheaper a lot, and in racing look too
It is under my consideration as well.

That is also something that I was looking to have done. But why is it so expensive?

I asked a seller the same question, the answer is: THAT'S THE WAY IT IS.

Anyone know what it costs to switch to black window trim?

Check with a BMW dealer. I think the rear windows (cargo area) need to be removed to change part of the trim.

Is there any other alternative to having the titanium trim? Or is this the only way to modify it.
