Love the look of the Chrome Exterior on the Cooper but I feel it looks odd on the Cooper S but can't figure out why. Maybe it's the vent on the bonnet.

Very few people on here have spec'd it on their Cooper S cars judging by the Personal Galleries ... is that because it wasn't available as an option when they bought their cars or does the nagging doubts I'm having affect others as well?

Your thoughts are appreciated. I am getting Hyper Blue.

Cheers Paul

I think the reason you havnt seen too many S`s with Chrome Grills, is that the Chrome Exterior pack has only recently been made an option for the MCS in the UK.
It was top of the options list when I was Spec`n my HB/W

Yeah, Tell me about it.
I pointed it out at the Dealers when I picked the car up, but was assured the lights would have been set up by the technicians

I`ll be taking it back next week to get it sorted out.
BTW, does anyone konw if there`s supposed to be little stabilazer mounts between the driving lights & the grill ? , to stop vibration, as I`ve been told that they`ve been seen on others
