Guys, what are your thoughts on "chrome covers for the wing mirrors"

1. you like them?
2. You don't like them.
3.Prices...I have seen prices differ wildly from £24.00 to £75

For those who have purchased these covers what are they like and where do you recommend i get them from?

BTW: they will be going on a black 06 s/c


thanks!

I think you would be better off getting them colour coded, chrome is a bit bling for me

ive got black sc,
I think chrome covers look a bit chav (only my opinion)
Colour coding looks alot better.
Chrome on a black rrs = pimp

Dont do it! FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy
Ex 2006 RRS SC - garbage
Ex 2016 135i M Sport - dream car
Ex 2003 RS6 Avant - piece of cr*p
Ex 2014 320d X Drive, M Sport Touring - ok I guess
Ex 2007 RRS TDV8 - bloody loved it
EX 2007 FL2 XS - not so bad

Dont like!

Here in Marbella, only the Russians drive RRS´s with chrome bits.

Remember, designing is a profession, not a hobby.

LR would have designed the RRS to come standard with crome, if it would look good!

sometimes we must do what is required.

Skywalker - I bought a 57 plate FF vogue last week which came with chromed covers, after I removed them I was shocked to find they were LandRover original parts

LandRover do design chrome bits, they can't mitigate for poor taste and if they can make a few quid at the same time...

Slick17 - I don't like them and wouldn't have them on my car, but its your car and your personal choice at the end of the day.

I quite like them. I had the half caps on my TDV8. I've just bought an SC and am thinking of putting the full caps on although I may also look at colour coding instead.

If you like them that's all that matters - I think on the right car they can look good - I prefer the half chrome cover than the full chrome in my case as it breaks up the monotony of a totally black car - and let's face it, you don't buy a RRS to try and blend into the corner  Wife's Car: BLACK RRS TDV8 HSE with all the bits

I have these and I think they are great. They add a touch of class, in my view. Got them from Famous Four about 3 years ago.

Too bling in my opinion....simple colour code is always best way to go......

I totally agree. Colour code OK, but not Chrome.

IMHO I like the chrome but only on Black.
I miss my ffrr that had chrome on ....Some would say too bling but i liked it
