yes i have that dark grey stuff too

its the 'elegance' trim. the sport one is 1 solid color all around outside. i like that look alot.

there was someone on here who painted there trim to match the body color and it looked quite good, but normally to replace it you'd have to order the sep parts.

Just paint it. I have a dark gray car (tectite gray) so it matches it pretty well. The only thing I had done was get the light gray strip repainted and clear coated. I didn't like it dull. It looks much better now and not like a cheezy piece of plastic trim.

how did u get the front bumper and rear bumper painted?
those arent strips and are actually part of the bumper itself.

and how do u remove the side strips properly?

They didn't remove them. They carefully masked it off.

Those dumb Germans probably know how to spell "inhale" though.
