£19.99 for two tiny bits of chrome seems a bit steep .....

Any ideas ?

Howard, you have no money.

STOP LOOKING AT SHINEY THINGS.

 

[Howard]

Thats why i want them cheaper !!!

 

[Ian B Walker]

But Howard you still have no money. Doesnt matter how cheap they are dose it?

BTW speak to Ray ref his latest shiney thing soon to be fitted. VERY cheap too :bannana: :bannana:

 

[Howard]

What is it ?

 

[KillerHERTZ]

Dear god, please dont fit them!!!

If you have to, Tesco sells tin-foil

 

[Howard]

You serious Karl ?

I really like them ....... i think it would finish the indicator off nicely

Yeah Im serious!



Well, its like the dummy ariels, I want one and I like the look, you like the crome etc... each too their own

the chrome trims do look nice around the indicators - my clear ones cost me £17.50 (inc postage and orange bulbs) and have a chrome surround included in the price (the units are two seperate pieces clear and chrome). If you manage to scrape that much together in the forseeable future let me know and I'll dig the seller's details out.

Does this mean the 'whale' is gonna get used as a wedding car after all?

 

[Howard]

No, 'Moby ****' will sadly be staying at home on my wedding day, I have a far swankier chariot to ferry my bride to be to the altar......

It begins with 'CL' and ends in '65'

Oh.
Got it now.
CLIO 1200cc. 65 bhp

 

[Howard]

Cheeky boy !!!

A pal of dads has a real life CL65 AMG, and subject to Angela being able to get out of the back of it it will be the wedding car !!

If she decides that its too difficult to get out the back of 'elegantly' instead of tumbling out then we have the fall back offer of another pals S500 .... so it will be a Merc of some description, but not 'The Great White Whale'

 

[GrahamC230K]

Howard, you couldn't pay me to fit that chrome shite to my car. Take my attitude and save your money. Buy my wheels instead

 

[Howard]

Whoa , thats a very aggressive statement Graham !!

Bad day at the office ?

I personally think the right things in the right places can add to a cars appeal, particularly the older cars eg. w124 , i'm not talking about chroming the wheels , the window sills and the door handles, but little things can make a difference ....

Chrome door sills for example, chrome shift surrounds, and dial rings etc ..

Lots of members have them.... even more have the chrome stars in the centre of the wheels.....

P.S. i would love your wheels Graham , but i have no money, this week i have taken a weeks holiday from work in order to decorate a friends restaurant, the money earned from that will be going towards the credit card bill

My chrome dial rings are oem tho

 

[GrahamC230K]

I know. No bad day, new you could take it!

I don't do the chrome thing, but if it's your thing, go for it.

Wheel centres are exempt

 

[andy_k]

sent you a PM with the details Howard.

I agree with both sides of the argument but some chrome can look kinda cool and at least it's subtle around the side repeaters

Sadly it was never an option on the w124's - so we have to make do ....
