I think the armrest is black, looks just like the E30 part.

As Kos said, the compact is getting a strong following as there are still plenty which haven't been slaughtered unlike the more-door and the coupe. If I had money I would consider the interior and spoiler but there are too many other things I want to do first.
318ti.org does have a small following in the UK (Myself included) but is still a small forum with not a great deal of active members. I personally expect the following of the compact in the UK to grow and the demand for parts to follow too. Now if there was a pair of titan-silver sport bumpers going I might have been seriously tempted!!!
