    Try ebay. most folk went for chrome, so pretty hard to come by.

    you could try and paint them.

    The boot handle shouldn't be problem as it's standard on a basic ONE - the front grille (upper) is either fully chrome or colour coded and chrome unless you get the aero-kit black plastic one which is criss-cross rather than slats. The door handles are a plasti-kote spray job i'm afraid!

    Don't forget you'll still have the brightwork chrome around the bottom of the windows ets.

    I was going to spray the whole chrome with shadow laquer so it will look like black chrome but i will have to wait til i move and set up my workshop. but i want it done yesterday because i am impatient

    Ahem... The bottom part of the grille on a One is black... unless you order the chrome pack...
    Like this one

    (unless things have changed on the facelift models...)

    LnL - the ONE comment was only meant to be relative to the boot handle :clown: should have explained more - yes your right as it's the MCS grille which is colour coded (unless it's a black car ) however the MCS grille has one less slat!

    Yes the black inner would look ok Im not quite sure if the small bits of chrome should stay or go perhaps i should post a new vote poll called chrome or black see what everybody else thinks peoples opinions are usually truthful so that might be a way to find out
