I'm not sure what you're asking.. styling is a personal thing. Like for example I think the big fin diffusers look hideous but others will disagree. It's your car do what you like mate

Mine is the same colour, all I've done cosmetically is black out some trim, not a huge fan of chrome.

I used gloss black vinyl on mine. It wasn't too difficult.

Personally I would do a chrome delete as I would look great on your colour, OEM 19" wheels in grey/gun metal, original rear diffuser and a smaller carbon wing.

Some like the chrome delete, others don't. I like it on certain color cars but I think the chrome delete around the windows (on darker colors) makes the car profile more subtle and looks more like a bmw. The chrome helps to break up the car color some. It also depends on what mods you have and aesthetics you are trying to go for. Check out my build to see more examples.

All good sorry if came across rude, For what its worth here is mine, I chrome deleted every bit of it.. I think black and grey is a tough as ***** combo on these cars. Hope it gives you some ideas. cheers

I've got steel (tenorite) grey as well.

I find wheel color to be a tough choice. My summers are gunmetal with a polished lip, which I love the look of. My winter wheels are satin black, which I hate and have been debating what to change them to. I feel like anything darker gunmetal is too close to the paint and would look like a failed color-match attempt.

I've done some blacking out on the grill fins, but not a fan of blacking out all of the chrome trim. While it looks amazing on that ^ satin grey, not a fan on tenorite grey.

I'm not sure that I've seen the 205 wheels on a 204, but that looks really sharp in my opinion.

@cloverfield This was for sale early 2021 if I remember correctly! One of cleanest 204's I've seen... The Apple CarPlay Module
