Strange iDrive knob + rev needle

Just relized that my M4's iDrive knob looks different from my 435i. The knob on my 435i has a layer of polished metal or whatever thing on it and looks shine and smooth. My M4 doesn't have that polished layer if you look at the pics below. However, all functions works well on my M4, the touchpad feature is still there... Does anyone have similar problem?

435i:




M4:


BTW, the top of my rev needle peeled when I picked up the car, don't know if I should warranty it, but not a big problem so far.

My gf's f30 has the glossy idrive knob, and after using both, the matte finish is much nicer imo. That defect on the needle is pretty minor. No idea if a dealer would swap that for you, but I haven't noticed the same on mine. I will look tonight
