Saw this outside my house
It really did look stunning with chrome mirrors and side intakes especially on black
Anyone know if we can get chrome mirrors for Roadster if enough are interested possible group buy ???
The picture realy does not do it justice

Believe it or not, you CAN get chrome mirrors (covers) for the '2 - have a look on Japanparts, or I think Adam might know about them.
Yes you can get them for a 2 but off hand I can't remember where from, I'll have a look around and let you know , unless someone else can tell you. s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
Here you go... from Japanparts (http://www.japanparts.com/shop/shop.cgi?mode=itemlist&maker=Toyota&type_car=MR%2dS+%3cMR2+Spyder%3e&type_second=Interior+and+Exterior&type_third=Exterior+%2d+others)

Be interested to see a picture if you go ahead and do this Peter.
Or you could go to Halfords and get the salesboy to order you some Chrome Spray s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
To see the effect, why not use dull side of kitchen foil ? Ok not for on the road, but too see if it would look ok. s:oops: :oops: s:oops:
I know what comes after these....
some of those lovely chrome wheelarch 'lips' (usually seen on old Merc E180's)..
or maybe limo-tints..
and some 22" chrome spinners to complete the mondo-bling drug dealer look.. s:wink: :wink: s:wink: s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
<innocent look>

Are you being a complete
*CENSORED* or does it come naturally or have you had too many bottlles of red wine that Darth Paul is so fond of
I personally think they look really good and can only add to the asthetic apperance of the Roadster

Whaaaaaaaat? Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh? Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa? Oh me head......... Actually it's Stella Tortoise this weekend. Oh me head in the morrow.
Chrome mirrors? Ummm, not too bad. Seen a lot worse, but they're not for me. A bit Corsa-ish/MGF-ish. But a least it's not fuel filler cap garnish. s:lol: :lol: s:lol: Or is this the slippery slope..? s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

Pic here (from SC):

I actually really like the chrome windscreen surround, though i bet its a bugger to get the damn flies of it!
The mirrors look okay IMO with the screen, not sure what they would look like without. That filler cap is not to my liking at all though.
Look again at that pic and you're see that you can also get a chrome surround for the rear view mirror too. That is also available from Japan Parts.
<temporary drift>I'm going off the chrome look at the minute. I'm tempted to get my chromdesign grills sprayed black along with my wheels. But it maybe a bit OTT on a black car s:shock: :shock: s:shock:
That's not the chrome rear-view surround - it's a different mirror altogether, a really odd shape... hang on a mo...
It's by Foliatec... Big pic (http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0TQDtAjYX4ZOJGq1OCAM99mkmZ!eAs!aBXNOjAcnE14MpQiUR8svEqWy7gDOq*fDiqaM7yFOKNvozGgclnVo6gubjJns3*nWxOHxLGFJicWqqy5ZVUuDNeQ/Cimg0668.jpg?dc=4675471758940789809)
That chrome windscreen surround looks like it's been stuck on.. I'd much rather go for a silver metallic painted look like on the VX220.. have actually been considering it for a while too, but I can't justify spending the money on something so trivial at the mo!
i think that looks very nice! very VX220 as someone just said. shame my 2's silver s:roll: :roll: s:roll: ....
everything in this thread looks like it came direct from Halfords... if you want to be pointed and laughed at then i say go ahead.... s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
Oooooooohhhhh..........harsh words Kris, but I have to say, I agree............sorry. s:oops: :oops: s:oops:
Yeah, "harsh but fair" for me too. But that's just my opinion, for what it's worth.
The windscreen thing doesn't look too bad, but the mirrors? No no no! Far too Z3 for my liking....... s:oops: :oops: s:oops:
Windscreen surround I like – alot. Mirrors? W@nker than a ... you know the rest! s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
And yes, two bottles of red wine later... s:? :? s:?

Couldn't agree more Paul. What you doing up at this time? Thought i was the only night owl in the club....................
