On the base model, if you select the M Carbon Exterior Package what changes when you also add Extended Shadowline Trim?

Close up, well-lit pictures comparing models/parts with and without the exterior carbon fiber package would be very helpful!

Agree!

Try building with contrasting colors.

Taken from bmwusa.com:

M Carbon Exterior Package
$4,700
Emphasize the sporting pedigree of your vehicle with lightweight, decorative carbon elements such as the dynamically-styled M Carbon mirror caps and the M Carbon rear spoiler. Also included are the visually-upgraded side air inlets in the front bumper as well as the rear diffuser insert, both with a unique geometric design.

I believe the only effect would be to change the exhaust tips from polished silver to black chrome. This is because the other two components of the Extended Shadowline Trim - the black mirror caps and spoiler - will instead be carbon fiber due to the M Carbon Exterior Package.

Incidentally, the opposite would happen if you ordered Extended Shadowline Trim Deletion (3DE) with the M Carbon Exterior Package on the Competition model - the only effect would be to change the exhaust tips from black chrome to polished silver.

I’m not 100% sure this is correct, but based on the contents of the packages, it should be the case.
