Chrome plated grille?

Hey all! Quick question - did MINI do away with the chrome grille for the base F56? I've been looking through some pictures and it looks like some of the base models have it and some have a matte, plastic-looking grille. I can't seem to find it listed as an option on Mini's Configurator. Anyone know?

I see a 'Chrome Line Exterior' option on the base model under Paint & Exterior, which says: 'Give your MIN a little extra polish with mirror caps, rollover protection bar, lower front brake ducts, rear grille surround and read bootlid handle in chrome' and on the image it also adds a chrome line around the bottom grill.

Is that not it?

It didn't specifically mention the front grille, so I didn't think that it was? But maybe I'm wrong?...

I think the Chrome Exterior Package includes a chrome grille on the base model based on the pictures I've seen on MotoringFile of the cars with the package.
