Question chrome detail on wheel arch

Dear Mini2,

Some of the original minis i have seen out and about have slight chrome detail on their wheel arches (pictured below).

Anybody (monsta) know of anything like this for our new mini's? With those chromed up wing mirrors, chrome side & front grill and number plate surround it could look great if subtle enough! Bearing in mind my black cosmos cooper has matching wheel arches and highly polished rims on me wheels (coming soon).

alex.

It's not up to me I'm afraid, I promised that I wouldn't show anyone.

The pictures I have seen are only test designs and not definite products.
