Hi, I am a newbie and after lurking in this wonderful forum for a few months I have finally plucked up the courage to post!!!

I placed an order for a DS/B Cooper S last November for delivery this September (I know, I know, to make sure I had enough money and trust me it has been an awful long wait!!). I know that I am going to have to finalise my order in the next few months and I have a quick couple of questions.

1. Chrome Line Exterior - On a Cooper S what will end up being chrome? I find it really hard to see from pictures?

2. Chrome Line Interior - Again what will be chrome?

Any help would be great.

1. Chrome line exterior is front grill and boot handle

2. Don't know I'm afraid - but I think you get chrome rings round most of the instruments (speedo, rev counter etc.)

That is correct, and when I get home I might be able to take a photo of mine if you wish.
Personally I think it looks really nice with the chrome interior.

Thanks for the replies!!! It certainly helps seeing pictures. Will give me something to work with now as I pretty much have my spec sorted just need to make my mind up over some of the little things.

Cheers all!!

Must say I am tempted after looking through that thread!!! Oh the choices!!!! Better get saving!!

Ok what about side skirts, I am tempted by these as well, what do you think to those tnoy?

[tnoy66]

The hard part with all the choices is knowing when to stop even after you've got it

The aero skirts are
Unfortunately you've just missed the recent group buy for these which makes them look a bit expensive now
