Looking For: Chrome Trim for the molding around the top

Hi Everyone,

I'm looking to chrome the trim around the top of my mini. I currently have chrome trim around the base area of the windows and added chrome trimmed pillars.

Anyone know where I could possibly get something like that?

Thanks,
Rob

Why don't you black it out? It would look pretty sharp to tell you the truth. Just a opinion. Good luck Spike

Honestly, I have never seen a part like that.

You could almost get 3/4'' 3M chrome stuff (a lot of it) and go that route. I dont know if there is an actual part like that.

Mini Mania or Moss MINI, I forget which, sells a kit that goes right above the rocker panels that actually comes in just a roll and you cut it yourself. It is actually made buy a chrome truck part company. If you find that part maybe you can inquire and find the company and get it from them.

Or just get the chrome roof. I've always wanted to see one of those in person.

Chrome roof would be awesome! I have thought about that a few times, haven't really looked into it, but now I got bug in my head......Thanks..LOL

I was planning to order the rocker panels, so I'll just ask and see what I can dig up...Thanks for the info.

I've seen that one before, but I have a sunroof so that won't work.
