S Gas Cap cover

What's available for the gas cap cover on an S.
The current OEM looks like...
A piece of cheap plastic

I actually love the look of the OEM MCS chrome-finished gas cap cover!

Admittedly, it is made of cheap plastic...but you only notice that after opening it. :/

I'm actually surprised with all the "You-ification" hype MINI puts out, that they don't offer different options for the filler cap.

Never thought of that but that's actually a good idea.
