F-Sport Owners (Chrome)

ScoFair · July 19, 2022

Hello there,

I'm new and this is my first post so please be gentle with me!

I'm maybe looking at purchasing a UX250h and the F-Sport model appears to be a great specification.

Now i may have seen a bad example, but there appears to be a strange mix of chrome finishing .... from a bronze/ gold tinted chrome on the front and rear, to a smoke chrome on the alloys and then the clear standard chrome finish to the window surrounds. I really can't understand why the 'theme' was continued through all the chrome work. I'm looking at a white car, so maybe the differences are more obvious.

Anyone else picked up on this or am i being super picky?

I think i would have to consider vinyl wrapping to give a more uniform appearance.

The front grill trim and the rear bumper trim should be the same i.e. a gunmetal finish

The window surround is silver

Not sure what you mean by the alloys as they are painted and would be impossible to get into the same finish

The car i viewed and test drove at the weekend had an alloy wheel finish that looked like 'smoked chrome' and i would prefer that the trims front and back plus the side window surrounds matched.

Like i said in my earlier post, i'm not sure if the one i saw was standard F-Sport specification, but the trims front and back looked like they were a definate bronze

They shouldnt be bronze. The front and back are gunmetal
