Exclamation question on chrome-package (900)

Hi,

This is my first post here, but allready lurks for about two years on this great forum.

My father ordered a '06 220 CDI SC with a lot of options, one of them was the chrome package.

Is this package coming with chrome strips on the door handles or not?
My father didn't order the C7 package (Evolution package here in Europe), so the door handles will be black. Because he didn't like that, he ordered color coded handles as replacement parts.

Now my question:
Because I never saw a W203 with black handles with chrome strip, I was wondering if the stealership wasn't playing games with him when ordering the replacement parts. (maybe the car allready comes with the colored ones due to that chrome package????)

I walked into 2 dealers and the didn't know the answer because they never saw a SC with that package...

Can somebody clarify this for me?

Thanks!


(ps: sorry for my english)

Welcome to the forum.

You might want to try a EURO forum as that vehicle and that option are not available in the US. HTH
