I am looking at changing the shadow chrome around the windows, front grille and strip on rear boot. Is there a replacement in mat black colour where they can be changed.

You're looking for the Black Optics pack...but I don't think this is available new from Audi anymore. You would need to get it sprayed (or do it yourself). I believe a couple of members have gone this way using plasticoat...

Grills/boot are easy to swap over but the bits around the window isnt...
Any good bodyshop can paint them for you - much cheaper than replacing everything.
I got all mine painted in Ebony Black, laquered - looked more classy than the factory matt finish...

Yup, it looks great painted. I must try and source some proper brushed aluminium mirrors...

It might sound silly, but you can get a really good result with black insulation tape - at least to see if you like if before you get it sprayed.
