Anyone have any tricks to de chrome my mini? I really want carbon fibre but I maxed out my budget having it repeated. I'm considering vinyl wrapping what I can and hydro dipping what I cant. My main items are the bumpers, headlight surrounds and grill.

Mk3 Black Mini Grille

CZH4015MS

Black grille as fitted in the 1980s will fit any saloon car from 1967 on.

The 1988 Mini Mary Quant Limited Edition had grey headlamp rims....if you can find any.
