   Hey im going to get my rocker cover chromed, obviously you have to take it off but i dont want to leave my car there? will a rocker cover from a mk1 saxo (black top/grey top whatever top) fit my saxo ? thats if i can find one, plus how long does it take to get this done, im going to get a quote in the evening, plus im thinking of getting the VTR rims refurbished as they got some kerbage and chromed, you think chromed VTR rims would look good on a saxo ?

   any cover should fit mate im sure. when i had my old car chromed they just told me that any inperfections on the cover will be really highlighted by the chrome so the finsish of the metal has to be perfect with no rust or dents. it took them about a week but they had loads of work on.lol
   
   chrome rims are a no imo.
