At least you have that option. When I ordered mine, I thought it was brushed aluminum. Oh well.

I don't like the glacier either. I went brushed - it's timeless. The glacier might date.

I personally don't like the fish scale aluminum trim. I saw it with black leather and it looked good. But not my cup of tea. I much prefer the poplar or gloss black.

I agree,...wanted to love the glacier,..but just cant. Fishscale pattern looks cheap to me. Brushed would have been perfect but oh well. All that matters is "Hey,..do i like it?":iono:
Ask yourself,...& If so,..pull the trigger.
Gloss black for me, but YOMV.

Is brushed aluminum an option in Canada? I don't see it on any country's configurator, including Canada's. I want to buy the parts and replace the trim in my 135 once it arrives. Realoem.com has some 1-series trim parts but none of them say brushed aluminum exactly.

I went with the aluminum becuase I really didn't like any of the other option either. I liked the wood but the wood seemed more luxury then sports to me.
