I voted matte black but that's only because I Plasti-dipped mine. I'd still like to see a "black chrome" 335is badge that matches the black chrome on the front grille.

Hey! We talked at Bimmerfest.I was the guy with the white lowered 'is.'
Black chrome would be a perfect choice. I've asked bimmian a number of times since the 'is' came out and their answer has always been 'check back in a few months.' I'm sure it's simple demand. I highly doubt that it would really cost them 10k considering how cheaply things can be manufactured in China. I think they just need enough demand to make a large initial order worthwhile. I believe the OEM chrome rear badge can be had for about $20 online. It makes more sense to just buy a new badge and spray it 'black chrome.' I just don't have the time I used to to be able to get it done.
