Whistle Silver/Aluminum/Titanium/Chrome gauge rings?

Hello to all, I need some help with this, I want to put the rings on my X but see so many ring sellers on eBay that don't know which one to buy , also some of them say CHROME while others say TITAN or SILVER. Which look is better and from whom to buy? If you have pictures of your rings and can post them, that would be helpful ...thanks.

i went with metal silver ones, not chrome. my x is TI Silver and the Silver rings match the paint.

They say they are CHROME but from the pictures they don't look CHROME at all and that is what I want to see, the difference between the chrome one and the titan/silver one if there is any. Maybe our good friend mrbmwx5 can help me here?

Great question. Personally I like the OE ones BMW uses on the 2006 X5's with sport package and the 4.8is models, but I have yet to see those exact ones anywhere.
