Just to refresh people's memory. This quote is from Page 2 of the Acrobat PDF format "The making of - Interview" from the BMW M3 web site:

"What details make the high quality of BMW M design particularly clear?"

Bachmann: "The drive for high quality, for a ”premium” look, is apparent in the overall design
of the M3, but also in the details, such as the hand-brushed aluminium trim, the distinctive
seams on the seats and the door panel inserts."



I am not a betting man, but I would say the aluminum trim (which is actually called "matt chrome...BMW makes no claim that it's aluminum) will not be available on the M3 from the factory.
