Chrome Bonnet Vents

I got my chrome indicator grills yesterday and they look well good so was wandering if anyone knew whether the chrome bonnet vents are available - I read about them in here somewhere before but have searched and can't find it. I think it was minispares who were making them, can anyone help me,

Mine have the S on them - i don't think the others are available yet - I was a bit unsure about them until I saw them and they look wicked, the red S matches my car (as its red)

I was thinking about getting mine chrome plated but the rear is plastic and it would look odd if they were different

How much will they be?
Will the side vents be available without the S?

Tempting.... Not sure if I could afford all of the polish though.. Plus in the summer everyone would need sunglasses!

I love the grills in question but, although they might go with your car as far as the colour is concerned but don't because of the fact it isn't a real 'S'. Im sorry and not trying to insult anyone but I couldn't bring my self to 'badge up' my Cooper to an 'S' in anyway. I will definatly wait for the plain ones from Simon.
