Headlamps on the GL450

I am confused about the headlamps on the GL. Some pictures show them in black (main pic on mbusa website) and other pictures show them with chrome (cover of accessory brochure). I haven't seen the chrome listed as an option anywhere. Does this have anything to do with the bixenon headlamp option?

Aren't you referring to the fog lamps in the lower bumper? If so, I'm not certain which package the chrome comes in but it could be the off-road or premium.

Yes, the fog lamps are what I am talking about. I guess I didn't explain that too well.
