Fran Unregistered F	Have to agree that chrome mirrors are pretty chavtastic. You could maybe do them in the LE anthracite which looks good. However, as stated above you really should have other chrome accents on the car to pull something like this off.... Last edited by Fran; 23/06/2010 10:57.

Your a bit stuck with yer White coachwork I had some one suggest when I was thinking of doing the spoiler black 3m carbon wrap what about that?? Il search the link out or google it :-)
