how many people like to have chrome surround on 850 or on mini in general.

My 850 has flares, 850 grill. 13 inch wheels. What do you think?

If to get them? get them from Mini spares or Minsport in UK or Minisport in Aus or Karcraft? chrome on brass or stainless steel. Looking for quality stuffs but dunno if getting them from UK is a bit of hassle cus u dunno if it will arrive in good condition.

Would it be good to have overridders as well?

I know its a personal taste but just wanna see what other people think.

btw, Happy new year everyone! more minis for everyone in 09 :lol:

If you mean the `moustache' around the grille, John Smidt told me Mini King will shortly have some NOS `Oz made' ones for sale with quality chrome plating.
Unlike some others, these will fit properly. :wink:
Here's one of his moustache pressings we got chromed earlier-

re. UK stuff, don't assume it is all UK made now, it's not... :lol:
