Tailgate conversion what colour strip chrome or silver

Looking at updating the rear of the Rangey.
Just ordered the 2012 black edition lights.
Next Going to order the tailgate 2012 update conversion panel and then fit the higher lettering, there's two options in the the kits for the strip that runs below the lettering colour in chrome or silver.
Does anyone know why there is two choices and what colour Landrover fitted from standard?
If you've a 2012 plus car what colour is your strip ? Java black 2006

I did this upgrade and I went for the silver strip. There is a thread on here regarding the different strips and I think I remember someone saying that the strip on the 2012 sports were silver.........Don't hold me to that though because I'm not 100% sure if this is the case. I'm sure someone will be along to put me right if I am wrong. Mr. Green 2010 RRS TDV6 3.0 Autobiography - Stornoway Grey

If your looking for the original look - go for the silver ( Atlas is the official colour ) I have done the conversion using the kit from Powerful uk - another member has used another supplier. Easy enough to do - but the fit is typical after market if you can put up with a little gap here & there only noticeable when you look closely - then go for it.
Any help needed - just ask. Thumbs Up 16MY Estoril Blue SVR.............

I think it was Tanloverluke who gave a top tip of attaching the silver strip to the base BEFORE fixing the the base unit to the back of the car. Doing it this way helped keep the gap to a minimum. Thumbs Up 2010 RRS TDV6 3.0 Autobiography - Stornoway Grey
