I had 547Rs for my 05 M3 that I just recently sold with black centers and polished lips. One piece of advice I will give you, make sure to have them clear coat the polish lips for you....you'll be glad you did because I know I was (you'll never have to polish the lip again)...;)

Couple problems with this that i've seen (just FYI)

1. a lot of times they lay the clear down too thick and it comes out hazy.

2. it usually chips and peels after one tire dismounting

3. HRE does not cover clearcoated lip under its std 1 year warranty.

You can do one of 2 things instead that may be better options:

1. Buy zoop seal (http://www.zoopseal.com) this stuff works (livo69 can tell you all about it)

2. As of 2/1/06 HRE is now offering chrome lips as an option again. Although this costs more it is low maintenance. However, once again HRE does not warranty the chrome lips under its normal one year warranty, but the centers would be covered.
