Not sure if this will be regarded as 'uncool'by die hards to chromotise my Liz, but www.moto-build.com have a few sets of chrome grill sets for the S1 at £108.00 a set. I have ordered a set, but I know they are a limited run if anyone is interested.

Having been into moto-build and been looked after I won't pick on the product. I would point out though that chrome would mean you need to keep your car clean..... quite frankly can't be arsed with that job

Just as well I am not sensitive! Any road up, I have them, they look great. My wife is delighted she found something to buy me for my birthday. I may just take them off if I have to meet up with any of you lot! Next I was thinking about whether they do those green window films with ELISE in large italics, and one of those earthing strips for the back to prevent car sickness. Any other ideas to make it look shagadelic baby?

I trust you're having a laugh? Would those strips actually do anything on an ally and plastic car?

Not a fan of the grilles myself but taste is a funny thing e.g. some people hate Marmite

I was thinking about covering the leather seats in fun fur, perhaps getting a set of those blue lights that fit in the winscreen washer holes, lighting underneath the car with tubes and covering the car in Kenwood stickers to show I have a nice stereo. I am definitely getting rid of that MOMO wheel to get something in a wood effect as it clashes with my stick on Garfield.

Or even just get them baked and then zinc coated.

Actually, they do tend to exagerate the front lower end and highlight the driving lights more, and pick out the tail lights better. While the old ones are off I will tidy them up just in case you lot start throwing rotten fruit and egss when I drive past.
