Added a bit of bling yesterday - Page 2

Proud owner · 26th January 2018, 15:23

Am well on that slippery slope, I too have the chrome on the roof rails like you John duly inspired by Suzublu. In addition, I have mounted the club badge and a period AA badge to the grill.

Having already added a full set of the excellent walnut trim from Simon in Bulgaria, I am about to ask him to send me a set of the chrome trim for the vents and switch gear.

I have already put the chrome strip left over from the grill around the front and rear roof lights, rear cupholder, rear air vent and also on all four door cards horizontally inside the centre crease.

Both cars will have the same bling, my ex-girlfriend says they look like a Christmas tree!

Just received some 2.5 badges in the post I ordered from China, arrived in only 10 days which is far sooner than expected and the best thing of all, they're surprisingly good quality. I got two and I'm going to put each one under the side indicator.

Could some of you drop me the link for the chrome bars on the roof?

Not being myself too blingy, but one of my bars looks in a rather bad condition and it could be a very good opportunity to kill two birds in one shot!

Thanks a lot.

Thank you @Proud owner.
The same as @suzublu or @jackatesme (John)?

Nice one Jim. Is it the 2mm strip and is 1M enough for one grill? Thanks M.
