Here's a photo of the front of my 2020 GS 350 F Sport Black Line Edition. The chrome surrounding the grill isn't actually black, it's more of a gold color. The trim pieces near the intakes at the bottom of the grill are indeed black. Hope this helps.

it’s black chrome. They should have made the chrome around the window the same.

"They should have made the chrome around the window the same." Unfortunately, they used the standard chrome around the doors. However, the chrome on the rear trunk lid is also gold chrome.

Would have been perfect if the trim around the windows and the exhaust tips were also black chrome.

I understand your post 100%, no misunderstandings here.

This sure looks like the 2020 Black Line grill surround to me!
Looks killer man. How was the install process? Pretty straight forward?

You have to remove the bumper, the grill, and then you'll be able to access the surrounds. They are clipped it on the perimeter - be careful not to break the tabs while you remove it. They are fragile.

Thanks again for the helpful info.

Can you tell me what is involved with removing the bumper? Do you have to remove the headlights prior to removing the bumper? It sounds like the grill is separate from the bumper? Just trying to get a better idea as to how much work the bumper removal might be.
