Chrome Line exterior

For all the Justa owners, I'm looking to add the chrome rear fog light cover (51127365737) onto the rear black band. I've seen '14 and '15 with the standard black cover (51127320815)
Did Mini change something with the '16 because my rear fog has an indent where the black or chrome cover could go, but no holes for the install??

When checking real oem I can't find a black band part number specific for chrome line exterior, so am I missing something?

2015 with the black insert
(51127320815)



2016 with the Canadian 'Style Package' added or Chrome Line Exterior (51127365737)


2016 - My car just before pickup. I see that there are 2016's on the lot with Chrome inserts so they do still put them on. I was thinking that if they gave me a black band with no insert (base model) there could be another version suited with holes to insert the Chrome piece (like the blue model above).
I was told my trim piece part number is 51127380013.
anyone with the chrome insert have a part number for their trim piece?

Looks like they gave you the part for the whole lower spoiler with the black band part.

51127380013

I would get the chrome part and see if its matches up to the install tabs , I can see the bottom one below that light, possible without black band or chrome line, there is just nothing there ( a void ), because it looks like they are just not added. See how far they both set out.

Chrome line insert.

Yes, I seen the Chrome piece at the dealer parts dept. It has about 8 tabs top and bottom. My bumper trim has a void space, no install tabs. I was asking if there is another bumper trim piece with install tabs that I could purchase and replace mine with so I could complete the look with the Chrome insert, but the dealership says 51127380013
is the only part. When I gave them the vin of a car with Chrome exterior, they said the same part number is the replacement piece for that car as well...?
Does anyone know if 51127380013 has install tabs? For me to order it, since it's a 'special order' I wouldn't be able to return it if it too had a void space...
