R56 missing chrome trim at the rear cup holder where behind the parking brake.
missing chrome trim at the rear cup holder where behind the parking brake.
I ordered interior chrome package. What about yours? Just find out last night. Mine was built 26/27 weeks. Picked up on Aug. 03.
I see...Now I know I am not alone with this. Folks.... but the catalog said it should come with it (pretty clear in black and white). How much is this piece anyway? It looks incomplete right now.
There's another thread on this. To summarize: after playing Nancy Drew at the dealership it looks like you don't get a chrome ring around your rear cupholder if you have the comfort access arm rest. If you don't have the armrest, you do get chrome on the rear cupholder.
The arm rest seems to replace the entire rear cupholder piece, and apparently that means you don't get the ring. It's possible the 'standard' chrome piece for the rear cupholder won't even fit.
The literature is insanely vague and in no way reflects the actual complexities of the various chrome line interior configurations. You could try using this to your advantage (my MA wasn't even aware of the fact that not everyone that got it got all the bits) and get them to order the rear ring piece and try to put it on. But it might not fit w/ the cupholder there.

Sorry Modnar... I meant to give your excellent sleuthing work on this one due credit when I first posted my input but I couldn't recall the original thread. Thanks again for your great detective work!
