Im sorta going for a bit of a chrome look with my mini and was wondering has anyone done the roof guttering in a chromey look before? Is it possible and does it look any good?

I've got some chrome arches that i'm thinking of parting with.

they go straight over the standard plastic ones?

pm me if you're interested :grin:

[Kattypilla]

How about the chrome bullet mirrors?

[gsms]

...do you already have those? I think you might by looking at your avatar actually!

Those chrome gutter trims can hold water and make your gutter rust more :nugget:

can you afford chrome wheels? :cool:

Just add some extra dranage holes to the gutter :grin:

How about overriders?Or a chrome plate for your four switches on the interior?Chrome bezels,handbrake. Get a chrome suit made lol

[Kattypilla]

Yeh i have the bullet mirrors and i have the chrome plate for my switches, also have a handbrake with some chrome on. I also have one of the old style dashboards with the clocks in the middle, at the moment its black leather behind i was thinking maybe changing it to white and getting a silvery/white stering wheel as well what do you think? If this is a. really difficult or b. looks C**p please tell me. Thankies!

Hell, just go for a chrome steering wheel!! :grin:

i personally think TOO much chrome just looks tacky. I like interiors to be a bit darker with just brighter touches here and there. If its chromed in a lot of places I think it detracts from the effect. Just my opinion though!

[Kattypilla]

thats cool im not going totally chrome im keep all my dark interior just may change the dash board an i dont particluarly like my stering wheel, ideally i'd like a pink one and i'd also like to be able to fit the little bit of my old stering wheel in the middle which says mini 35 into a new one. im not sure this is going to be possible though.
