apparently all the silver replacement parts are now only available in the matte finish. gloss is no longer produced according to the parts department. the dealer has now ordered a the needed pieces in the matte trim to match. imo the matte seems to be less prone to scratches.
your gloss finished cup holder must have been sitting on a parts shelf.
