My issue with the chrome is it feels dated and newer vehicles seem to be going away from it. My truck (Nissan Armada) has a nose full of chrome and chrome bumpers. They looked cool at the time but I guess I like more subdued now. Current models agree.
My big issue with the cerium is it looks like a third color on the car which is out of place and competing with the body color and black trim.
Had it been more of a brushed titanium I might have liked it.
To each their own though, my opinion is just that but I’ll say if I didn’t have black grills on my X3MC they would have been swapped day one with extreme prejudice!
