Funny you ask.
Me and Ali had a look around this at the Pod and figured you'd like the chrome

! Did you notice the front bumper and petrol flap also???
Anyway, no idea whose it is.

*sigh*
Chrome door handles...? Looks okay on classic (proper classic) cars... (Jaguars, MG's, Healeys, etc.) but not an 80's icon that was built in the time of plastic trim and uber cool living. But I suppose it's your car and you are free to ruin it on your own without any intervention from anyone who knows about style...
Next you'll be wanting to add whitewalls, semaphore indicators and a little chrome badge on the back that tells everyone that you actually have 'disc brakes' on your car.

the front bumper, maybe with a few more accepts might look cool.
but anyone that thinks that fuel filler door is cool, should just start buying their accessories from autozone.

Have to agree with the other guys on this one, Neil.
Wing mirrors and door handles are a bit OTT.
If you "chrome" the filler cap then I'm flying over to give you a shoeing !!
