Black Cooper Chrome Grilles, Clear Repeaters & Cooper S Filler

Hi all.

I know this has been discussed in the various places in the forum before, appologies, but I would really like to consolidate the answers I need in one place, and I'm sure other people will find it handy.

My Solid Black/white roof/white 16's/tartan cooper is arriving in just over 2 weeks () and after seeing some pictures in the forums, I have decided to get some chrome grilles with side repeaters and a Cooper S filler cap! Answers I would like are:
  • Where is the best place to buy these items?
  • Are there different types of chrome grilles out there? If so, which are the best? (Pictures please!)
  • For a complete DIY novice, how easy is if to fit all of these items? I don't want to scratch the paint work!
  • Where is the best place to get hold of some instructions for fitting these items?
  • Will i need any special tools?
  • How good will my car look with these mod's?

Thanks for all reply's in advance.

Try the F.A.Q & D.I.Y button at the top of the page I think there are fitting guides in there for these things.

You can buy these items from http://new.minispares.com.

The side grills are easy to fit. I have not fitted the Cooper S filler cap so I am not sure about that.
