As for the convenience package, I don't like the armrest. I wish I could order the convenience package but tell them to leave out the armrest. I asked the dealer, but they said no. So instead I just picked the options I like most from the convenience package. So I end up spending $1250 for all those options except I'm missing the armrest (which I don't want), the garage door opener (I don't have a garage, so I wouldn't use it), and the comfort access (I would like this, but it's not something I need and not worth $500 as a seperate option).

As for the chrome gas filler, again the install is what is expensive. Apparently the piece which surrounds the chrome cap needs to be painted to match the car, and that is what makes it so expensive. As the theme of my car is chrome, and I think the chrome gas filler is the nicest chrome part you can put on a mini, I'm definately going to add this.

Yeah, the installation is what makes the price so high. Unfortunately, they do not offer silver bonnet stripes from the factory except on the clubman model. I decided I don't want the black stripes with the black roof, so my only option is to have the dealer install it. I'm still not 100% decided on the stripes, but I was told I don't have to decide until the car comes in.

Ooooops, just noticed you did order the exterior chrome line. Great choice.
