Not sure if that is normal or an exception.

Any thoughts?
I went with the anthracite. I don't care for the two types of metal abutting one another. I love that they use the metal trim strip under the trim in the x5/5 and 7 bit for me it eliminates a different kind of metal trim. I was between anthracite and piano and went with anthracite because I've read that the piano can show scratches. I've had anthracite before and that's never been a problem.
