New mini

i'm about to to sell my H3 and get a mini within the next couple of weeks. i'm getting a black cooper S. i was wondering if there is an easy way to black all the chrome. krylon maybe? also what is the cheapest rear seat delete kit? cheapest i saw was like 170 i think...

getting the chrome wrapped in vinyl is the most sensible way in my opinon.

Out Motoring is great we have made several purchases from them and actually we are thinking of the black out kit also!

Be sure to post some pics if you do it!

Not sure about the rear seat delete.....thought I saw someone had a DIY post about it awhile back.

Good luck selling the H3. Tough time to be selling one.
